    With their dazzling fourth album Make A Scene, Winnipeg combo Sweet Alibi masterfully deliver soulful roots-pop elevated by the luminous vocal harmonies of Jess Rae Ayre, Amber Nielsen, and Michelle Anderson. Produced by Matt Peters and Matt Schellenberg (a.k.a. members of indie-pop squad Royal Canoe who produce under the Deadmen moniker), Make A Scene weds rich lyrical themes to wildly accessible songs such as the propulsive “Confetti,” which occupied the Top 20 of CBC Radio 2’s national chart for an impressive eight weeks, building on previous airplay Sweet Alibi enjoyed on satellite and terrestrial radio. Bassist Alasdair Dunlop and drummer Sandy Fernandez round out the acclaimed Western Canadian Music Award winners, whose We’ve Got To album scored 2014’s Roots Duo/Group Recording of the Year. Watch for Sweet Alibi on tour in 2022 and beyond.

about

This song is about making decisions based on what is right and not what everyone else is doing. Trying to stop the patterns that just take us back to the same problems. Sometimes we need to make a scene to be heard, to show people there can be another way.

lyrics

I keep on writing the same sentence
Keep on acting the same way
Every part is this a new direction
Every change just seems to take me back to the way I came


Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene


Ha ha ha haaa ahhhh
Ha ha ha haaaa ha ahhh
Ha ha ha haaa ahhhh
Ha ha ha haaaa ha ahhh


So many reason you need a lesson
So many reasons I need to change
I keep on running
You keep running
I keep making the same mistakes
Ha ha ha


Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene


I’ve been searching in the wrong place
Caught in a crowd with no direction
Can't keep running away
Running away
Running away


Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene
Make a scene
Start a new love
Make a scene

Sweet Alibi Winnipeg, Manitoba

There is more than a touch of magic in the luminous vocal harmonies powering the soulful roots pop of Winnipeg combo Sweet Alibi.
The voices of Jess , Amber and Michelle are tightly braided together, as they are in the super-sticky title track of their dazzling fourth album, Make A Scene, or are ornamenting Ayre’s lead on the gorgeously propulsive and contemplative “Slow Down,” ... more
