RELLIK & SFE
SPOTLITE SESSION
Rellik & Signal From Earth (SFE) were formed when mufti-award winner, Bill “Rellik” Leblanc (acoustic/lead vocals), decided to have a full-time band. After many years of success as a solo artist with a backing band, it was time to make what became SFE. Starting out with James (harmonica/piano) and Smokey (pedal steel guitar), and organically adding power members Q-Mike (drums/vocals), Jaden (bass/vocals), Zach (trumpet), & Daniel (congas/bongos), with cameos by back up singer, Drew. In this group, we see a unique sound born that is based on artists that truly believe in the project and enjoy playing together.
Last summer kept these guys busy with and over a dozen festivals, including the North Country Fair, K-Days on the main stage, and Adamstock, With whatever spare time they had left, they were always working on music videos, other shows, and new projects, always endeavouring to bring great music to their fans. Keeping humble is just how these guys like it, always making sure the crowd is engaged, before, during, and after the show. I foresee a lot of songwriting, studio time, and the occasional live stream show.
With the release of their self-titled debut album, and already on their way to writing another slew of great songs, I think the future of Rellik & SFE is beyond bright. Keep an eye on these guys as they are working their way to the top.
A special thank you to Napthali Leblanc for all she does for SFE and of course her loving life and business partner, Bill. Her contributions to the band and beyond do not go unnoticed, and she is invaluable to the team. The band also thanks their families, friends, and fans for all their love and support.
