Background notes
Archive material and source history
The Rural Alberta Advantage formed in 2005 as a trio with Nils Edenloff, Paul Banwatt, and Amy Cole. Their debut album 'Hometowns' came out in 2008 and earned them a Juno Award for New Group of the Year. They followed it with 'Departing' in 2011, which included the song 'Don't Haunt This Place'.
They've released five studio albums including 'Mended With Gold' in 2014, 'The Wild' in 2017, and 'Buffalo' in 2023. Other songs in their catalog include 'In The Summertime', 'Tornado '87', 'Barnes' Yard', and 'Coldest Days'.
Their music often deals with themes of loss and longing, with Edenloff's lyrics exploring the darker, more introspective side of human experience. The band has maintained a consistent presence in Canadian indie music for nearly two decades.
