Canadian singer-songwriter and actress
Musical artist
Frazey Obadiah Ford is a Canadian singer-songwriter and actress. She joined the Be Good Tanyas in their first year.
Her solo debut Obadiah was released on Nettwerk on July 20, 2010.[1]
Jenny Charlesworth of The Georgia Straight wrote that a few of the songs "swing with a mellow neo-soul beat enlivened by buttery vocals", and noted influences from rhythm and blues singers Ann Peebles, Roberta Flack, and Donny Hathaway.[2] Ford also credits her free-spirited parents (her father was an American conscientious objector who moved to Canada), and being a mother has had a strong influence on her songwriting.[3][4]
Obadiah takes its name from Ford's middle name, Obadiah.
When she was born, her parents asked her brothers to choose her middle name; they decided to name her after their pet cat Obadiah that had recently run away.[5]
Ford was raised in Castlegar, B
