Description
One of the most accomplished singer songwriters in Canada, Royal Wood takes on the world with the release of his new album Ghost Light.
Royal Wood has gone from a farm boy musical prodigy to the chaotic lifestyle of an FX trader, to one of Canada's most acclaimed performers, producers, and songwriters. All in a very short time. In 2013, Royal split from his wife, headed overseas, unplugged, and tucked himself away in a rustic cottage outside the village of Slane, Ireland. With that isolation, Royal wrote the album that was to become The Burning Bright. An album which spawned the Canadian radio hit "Forever & Ever" and broke Royal's career wide open in Canada. After nearly two years of touring behind The Burning Bright, Royal relocated to LA to record Ghost Light with co-producer Bill Lefler. instead of hiring session players to perform on the songs, Royal took it upon himself to play almost every instrument. "The creation of Ghost Light was an example of serendipity at it's best... the album literally laid itself out at our feet in a number of weeks."
It's now time for the rest of the world to be introduced to this immensely talented and captivating performer. "Today, I find myself finally comfortable in my own skin. Finally making the music I always knew I was born to create. Finally acting independently of the good opinion of other people. I am simply following my bliss and seeing where it leads me."
