For over a year now, I have been witness to the cr For over a year now, I have been witness to the creation of this beautiful album. Sheila and Brian have poured themselves into every note of this project, and from the first song to the last it is an emotionally steeped, lovingly crafted masterpiece. In a time when every single happy thing needs to be shared, may I present to you, Kennedy Road 's brand new album 'A Little Fight Left Yet'. (Link in our bio) Enjoy. xoxo Amanda Be sure to follow them here: @kennedy_road_music

Amanda, you’re the truest friend and one day I’ll buy you a clawfoot tub. But for now, please accept this instagram post. Love you ❤️

Happy Release Day! “Christmas Time Is Not The Sa Happy Release Day! “Christmas Time Is Not The Same” is out today on all platforms! This song was inspired by the loss of a close family member, a loss that was felt that much more keenly during the holidays. We know this time of year can be especially challenging for so many, so let’s treasure our time together as a gift. Special thank you to @brianmacmillanmusic for playing on and producing this song, and for @drewjurecka and @bret.higgins for their beautiful performances.

Testimonials

There’s nothing pretentious about Dala’s music; it’s stripped down and laid bare. That’s not to say it is without polish – far from it. Sheila Carabine and Amanda Walther have worked hard to exploit every facet of their extraordinary musical blend, and it would be just as at home in a 1960s coffeehouse as it is now on the contemporary concert stage.
Andrew Craig, Host of CBC “Canada Live”
Dala seem bound for a loftier place where substance stands equal to style.
The Irish Times
Dala can sing! What beautiful flights of melody and harmony, reminiscent of the Everly Brothers, the Louvin Brothers, Emmylou Harris and associates; though Dala can trade a melody line and leave one wondering who is taking the lead and simply leave one behind when the harmonies kick in.
