A live performance of Bella White's "Just Like Leaving", filmed at St. James Community Square in Vancouver, BC.
While traditional bluegrass is usually associated with the American South, the genre has surely found a safe and loving Canadian home in the form of Calgary-born singer/songwriter Bella White. Armed with a piercing voice, edged with teardrops, White’s debut album Just Like Leaving, rings out as a coming of age anthem. The twenty-year-old singer/songwriter and instrumentalist shies away from modern and fussy arrangements, and instead brings a traditional style of music into the contemporary moment by personalizing it to her own experiences. “I want people my age to hear my music, and think, actually Bluegrass is kind of cool”, she says. Throughout Just Like Leaving, White finds her strength in leaving home for the first time, with songs of heartbreak and loneliness that demonstrate both an old soul and a young heart.

Lyrics:
The lights pouring through my window dressing everything all up in gold and I don’t know what I’m doing
here I left the howling winds and the prairies to find some kind of idea, am I full or am I empty?
Maybe I just like hurting, building up walls and then ripping them down with my own disposition. My own hurting masks the way I feel about the world and all the little things I wish were different
And I’ve been grieving since I left old Carolina. The bars on my window didn’t leave me safe at night. Now i’ve chased your love cause I thought it might feel woolen. Like a dram on a damn cold winters night.
Some things they just like leaving, like people love and money and I don’t know what it’s all running from.
Perhaps the fear of splitting open, showing some parts of yourself that you don’t even really want to know.
And I’ve been grieving since I left old Carolina. The bars on my window didn’t leave me safe at night. Now i’ve chased your love cause I thought it might feel woolen. Like a dram on a damn cold winters night.
