This award-winning Toronto-based folk trio has a musical style running from traditional folk ballads to blues, pop and humor, with a variety of vocal and acoustic instrumental arrangements.

Smokin' Joe Wiseman

Smokin' Joe Wiseman Genre: FOLK & TRADITIONAL

A Field By The Sea. It's a pretty stirring title, invoking visions of desolate beaches, wind-swept heather and frothy, undulating waves. Smokin' Joe Wiseman came up with it while looking seawards from Cape St. George towards the cemetery (marble orchard) - a field by the sea if ever there was one.
