Happy Holidays from Opal Canyon! Thank you for making our 2022 a blast! Enjoy our Christmas song which was co-written by Debra DeMuth and Robin Lane. Music by Robin Lane and Opal Canyon, Produced and engineered by Dave Houghton at Burgundy Lounge Studios. Mixed and mastered by Justin Pizzoferrato at Sonelab Studios.
Opal Canyon is a place where modern country finds psychedelic escape, featuring Debra DeMuth, Dave Houghton, Bob Hennessy, Ray Mason and Jason Smith. Debra DeMuth’s voice with an emotive, old-time resonance is featured vocally and Dave Houghton (of indie-rock groups, Fancy Trash and The Reejers), adds a dissonant vocal harmony along with his well-mastered guitar playing which can sway between delicate to furious in an instant.
DeMuth and Houghton previously teamed up as duo, And the Neighbors, with Opal Canyon they have added a full-band of talented, experienced musicians. Celebrated artist, Ray Mason, of the Lonesome Brothers and The Ray Mason Band offers his bass playing prowess, Jason Smith who has played drums for Chris Smither and Erin McKeown adds drums and percussion and Bob Hennessy who has played with Treefort and Ware River Club adds in electric guitar, mandolin, piano and organ.
Opal Canyon released their sophmore album, Tomorrow to the Sea, in Spring of 2022. The album was produced by Jon Evans (Tori Amos, Sarah MacLaclan) at Brick Hill Studios. Opal Canyon has opened for Los Lobos, Donna the Buffalo, Caroline Jones of the Zac Brown Band and played to packed rooms throughout New England.
