Cornflower Blue are Trevor May and Theresa McInerney, a pair of Ottawa musicians creating live folk music with chiming guitars and shimmering vocal harmonies. They have been performing together for over ten years.  They play either as a duo, or with their band: Dea (violin), Dosh (Bass), and Rob (Drums).

Theresa is originally from Dartmouth NS, but has spent some formative years in Cold Lake Alberta. Trevor originally hails from Edmonton AB, and has spent some early years in the interior of BC.  They routinely draw on this broad experience to create their music, which uses space, dynamics, and openness to dramatic effect.  Big parts of their sound are Theresa’s voice, Trevor’s harmonies, and chiming electric guitars with B-Benders. The resulting effect is sublime.
