The Be Good Tanyas' Frazey Ford is set to release her debut solo album Obadiah on July 20. Obadiah combines Frazey's gorgeous sultry vocals that helped define the Tanyas' sound, with her ever growing love for soul music, adding a rich fullness and bottom end to the 13 tracks the comprise the debut.

Recorded during a blissful Vancouver summer, Obadiah is a collection of songs hand-carved by the hardships and exaltations of life, and stained with the rich colors of soul and folk music that fueled artists like Joni Mitchell, Ann Peebles, Neil Young, and Donny Hathaway.

As lead singer and one third of the beloved East Vancouver alt folk trio, The Be Good Tanyas have achieved cult status since their inception in the late 90's. With classic albums Blue Horse, Chinatown and Hello Love, the three young women were met with ever growing critical and fan acclaim, garnering 4 star reviews in Rolling Stone and MOJO and selling out concert halls across North America and Europe.

Frazey is set to return to the stage this summer with a full summer tour to be announced soon, including the following Lilith 2010 shows:

June 27 Calgary Lilith Festival
June 28 Edmonton Lilith Festival
July 1 Vancouver Lilith Festival
