ROVE AND GO

V1:
Why shouldn’t she go she’s only ninety?
We call her Grandmothers wheelhouse
She’s one of many where more than the stakes and the jacks were raised
Now not just the people of town migrate
Think beyond the water, and guide her gently

Rove and go love rove and go love
Think rove and go love rove and go love

V2:
So wrap up the glass and stow the table
Every hand in the harbour every man that’s able
On green wood past the grave yard the school and store
This land we call home for one day more
Think beyond the water, and guide her gently

Rove and go love, rove and go love
Think rove and go love, rove and go love
Rove and go love, rove and go love
Think rove and go love, rove and go love

V3:
Leave the wisdom in the walls and the wishes in the windows
Leave the all the footsteps in the floorboards but cry good-bye to the meadows
Push pull and haul, the cleverness of man
I don’t know if we should but I know we can
Think beyond the water, and guide her gently

Bridge:
So let go and let’s go
Decisions are made
There’s nothing left to contemplate
Card laid card played
Think beyond the water, and guide her gently

Think rove and go love, rove and go love
Rove and go love, rove and go love
Think rove and go love, rove and go love
Rove and go love, rove and go love

Rove and go, and rove and go, and rove and go, rove and go
Rove and go, and rove and go, and rove and go, rove and go

Led by their fearless front-woman Derina Harvey, this five-piece Celtic-rock group offers a fresh take on traditional tunes and intersperse that offering with their own original jigs and reels. Their infectious rhythmic undertow is layered with rock guitar, dizzying fiddle motifs, and topped by Derina’s powerful voice. These transplanted east-coasters have earned a reputation with their high-energy live show, leaving many an audience out-of-breath and hollering from the dance floor!

The band has proven to be a crowd-pleaser wherever they go. Though the band is based in Alberta, 2015 has seen the group travel across the country, with three trips to Newfoundland to their credit where they have entertained crowds at theatres, festivals, and pubs. They have been featured twice on the main stage of George Street Festival in St. John's, once opening for NL favourites Shanneyganock. Most recently, they have shared the stage with other east-coast favourites such as Jimmy Rankin, The Irish Descendents, Pogey, and even some rock acts including The Trews, Kim Mitchell, and Trooper.

The band continues to build on a growing fan base by promoting their self-titled debut album (released in 2013). The record has garnered radio airplay in multiple regions in Canada (CKUA in Edmonton; K-Rock and Radio Newfoundland in St. John's, NL; CBC, Canada-wide). Their second album entitled "Rove and Go" (released May, 2016) has already gotten airplay on over 30 community and college radio stations across Canada.
