Think "tongue-in-cheek torch songs" and you have one place of departure with this Winnipeg based singer songwriter. JP Hoe writes tirelessly in all styles, charming audiences with his sharp lyrics, a smooth voice and a casual demeanor. Humour, simple phrases, and bold ideas are all part of his trade. In May JP released his fifth effort, Mannequin, featuring 11 new original songs. He will celebrate the release with a cross Canada tour, and the first single, "Nothing's Gonna Harm You" has been charting on CBC Radio 2 ever since.
Mannequin is a beautiful collection of songs with a dark and melancholic edge weaving it's way in and out of the tracks. 'Tight', 'focused' and 'confident', are words JP uses to describe the album. From the catchy first track Bingo Palace to the co-written song Conversation with Luke Doucet, the album explores the different sizes and shapes of adult alternative pop, similar to a window dresser experimenting with his 'mannequins' in the storefront.
JP is anything but a cookie cutter artist, and has remained fiercely independent throughout his career. Whether its routing tours around his favourite BBQ shacks in Mississippi, or returning home every December to throw the city his themed concert in the form of the JP Hoe Hoe Hoe Holiday Show, the three-time nominated Western Canadian Music Awards artist is pursuing his vision. He'll continue to connect with audiences young and old, near and far, sharing the stories behind his songs, refusing to rest on his laurels and thankful he's found a place amongst so much noise.
He's toured around the world; at times providing support for seasoned veterans such as Jann Arden in concert halls and arenas, and other times playing in the hidden roadhouses that dot the southern USA. This troubadour knows you're only as good as your last show. The Australian Review had this to say about JP.
"Highlight of the evening, however, went to our next performer – acoustic singer/songwriter JP Hoe from Winnipeg, he recently made waves playing the One Movement Showcase in Perth. At times Sufjan and Andrew Bird-esque, at others reminiscent of David Gray and John Mayer, JP Hoe's talent is quite outstanding. There is true power in his voice and words, in an instance where he simply makes it look easy. Make sure you check this guy out when you can."
Let's get out and celebrate the new release from one of Canada's true hidden gems!
