Ain't No Sunshine -- Bill Withers (cover by Canen 12 y.o.)

When I was little, I remember hearing Ain't No Sunshine in a movie and I immediately fell in love with the soul in this song. It was always one of those songs that I just sang around the house.. doing homework, cleaning whetever, etc.. but I never considered actually singing it. Then after I reaaally started liking to sing, my mom suggested I learn this one. The band is so unbelievable on this, from the awesome drum beat to the gorgeous cello, that I got emotional a few times at how beautiful it was. I hope you like our rendition :) xx canen

Twelve year-old upstate New York artist, Cănen (pronounced ‘cannon”), introduces her second EP, A Matter of Time, adding to her collection of jazz standards and other vintage classics, along with an original by noted singer/songwriter Anna Coogan with Canen. For over a year, Canen’s songs have been played multiple times on radio stations in the US, England, Ireland, Canada, Australia, Italy, and the Netherlands, including WFMU, (metro NYC), and blues and roots (UK). She has been showcased online, including in Fatea Magazine’s Autumn 2015 showcase, and lauded in a review in de Krentin Uit de Pop (Netherlands). Two of her cover songs, including Ain’t Misbehavin’, as well as an original song, were selected by the Unsigned Only Contest as Semi-Finalists, making her one of the youngest artists featured in this top ten percent category.

As in her debut EP, Think Twice, she once again joins Anna Coogan (JD Foster, Johnny Dowd), Grammy-winning engineer Will Russell and musical heavyweights Willie B (Neko Case, Jamie Lidell), and Michael Stark (Johnny Dowd, Spoon), adding renowned cello player Hank Roberts (Bill Frisell), and veteran bass player, Brian Dozoretz (Queen Latifah) into the mix at Electric Wilburland in Newfield, NY. Her cover of the 1942 chart-topper, I’ve Got a Guy in Kalamazoo, is a nod to her great-great Uncle Barry Wood, lead vocalist on NBC’s Your Hit Parade, and immediate predecessor to Frank Sinatra.
