Morden, Manitoba is home base for the indie quintet, which began to take its shape in 2012. After a successful Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign, and many long days spent at Private Ear Recording in Winnipeg, Lakes and Pines released their debut album “Peace Comes at Last” on May 13th, 2017.
“Folksy, rocking, with deep and thoughtful lyrics – “Peace Comes at Last” is a terrific and confident first album from a group that I very much hope will experience a long and successful career. Be advised, though: the group’s music is not for the absent-minded listener. Songs like “Boy Scout Jamboree” and “Big Change Coming” can provoke some rumination (or they should); the album will leave you thinking deep thoughts whilst simultaneously appreciating the musical package in which they are wrapped.”~L
Great Dark Wonder
”The Lakes and Pines sound is a fully realized, comfortable soundscape, led by singer/songwriter Patrick Simoens’ gentle acoustic melodies and hushed, lilting alto. The songs are fleshed out by ethereal string crescendoes, atmospheric electric guitar … and pinned down by a solid, fluid rhythm section.” John Kendle Winnipeg Free Press
“Lakes and Pines are an excellent addition to any prairie festival. Poetic lyrics about elements people understand coupled with a capturing rhythm build the experience we want to give our audience. Each song tells a story you must hear the end of and include instrumental build-ups that keep an audience engaged. They are a draw to any event we hold and we are very proud to showcase Manitoba musicians who warm your heart on the coldest of winter days.”Jocelyn Unrau Chairperson at Back 40 Folk Festival 2013
