The style of music they performed can be referred to as alt-country or Americana. Formed in Vancouver, British Columbia, The Be Good Tanyas (Frazey Ford, Trish Klein, and Sam Parton) first played together at tree planting camps in the Kootenays region of British Columbia. They eventually played their first concerts in Vancouver in the late 1990s.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 2000 they embarked on a North American tour that ran from Vancouver to New Orleans, before returning to British Columbia to record their first album Blue Horse with producer Garth Futcher. The record, which combines old-time music standards such as \"Oh! Susanna\", \"The Cuckoo\" and \"The Lakes of Pontchartrain\" with self-penned songs like \"The Littlest Birds\", was well received in the folk-roots movement and highly praised for the quality of the harmony vocals and the mixture of the new and the traditional in the instrumentation. Helped by the popularity of Americana at the time of its release, it achieved a modest amount of crossover success in college radio, and was featured in a television commercial for Zellers department stores.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe second album, Chinatown, followed in 2003. Their third album, Hello Love, was released on October 10, 2006.\u003c/p\u003e","musicPath":"/music/The+Be+Good+Tanyas","playStationPath":"/stations/272447373/play","stationId":272447373,"bioPath":"/music/The+Be+Good+Tanyas/_full_bio","similars":[{"musicPath":"/music/Old+97+s","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/58c/58caa21b18748c8bd31dfffcd2e5b838_md.jpg","artistName":"Old 97's","artistId":1183,"station_id":113264121},{"musicPath":"/music/Elliott+BROOD","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/491/49114a4a364d95f9a9a23d24182ca4e6_md.jpg","artistName":"Elliott BROOD","artistId":110615,"station_id":282142130},{"musicPath":"/music/Jesca+Hoop","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/beb/beb4d75365f8a2fc1966e512bb8ff25c_md.jpg","artistName":"Jesca Hoop","artistId":11649,"station_id":113550490},{"musicPath":"/music/Deer+Tick","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/2ba/2ba55b369a23295b5e91aa12245072b2_md.jpg","artistName":"Deer Tick","artistId":13665,"station_id":113553420},{"musicPath":"/music/16+Horsepower","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/e08/e08bd4f91e645cbcbeb6bf2abd5e90c1_md.jpg","artistName":"16 Horsepower","artistId":11506,"station_id":113309325},{"musicPath":"/music/Brown+Bird","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/d53/d53957f0a13db99fcf12af65ea77c719_md.jpg","artistName":"Brown Bird","artistId":107590,"station_id":281862593},{"musicPath":"/music/Old+Crow+Medicine+Show","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/235/235af6c48c08ad9df1a74fbbca1df767_md.jpg","artistName":"Old Crow Medicine Show","artistId":10156,"station_id":113268885},{"musicPath":"/music/The+Deep+Dark+Woods","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/615/615fdff0588c5e0fd2be304eff2d07c7_md.jpg","artistName":"The Deep Dark Woods","artistId":421683,"station_id":400335505},{"musicPath":"/music/Parker+Millsap","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/120/12093a603b4e6338c01a5708c2568658_md.jpg","artistName":"Parker Millsap","artistId":434208,"station_id":400742750},{"musicPath":"/music/James+McMurtry","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/c45/c45a0032a46825bed19552cc7d10a739_md.jpg","artistName":"James McMurtry","artistId":8582,"station_id":113322481},{"musicPath":"/music/The+Handsome+Family","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/41f/41fb160714cab464c9789180c48e38d3_md.jpg","artistName":"The Handsome Family","artistId":15480,"station_id":146667459},{"musicPath":"/music/The+Builders+and+the+Butchers","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/675/6751ddebeeb7a26a7cfc8d05d4e9674d_md.jpg","artistName":"The Builders and the Butchers","artistId":100944,"station_id":280763420},{"musicPath":"/music/Iris+DeMent","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/67a/67ad5cb0c31d47c2d57f48933c8a85e5_md.jpg","artistName":"Iris DeMent","artistId":7663,"station_id":113372018},{"musicPath":"/music/Crooked+Still","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/1a7/1a7af1ab101781086ca15327d5053b24_md.jpg","artistName":"Crooked Still","artistId":457238,"station_id":401274172},{"musicPath":"/music/Hurray+For+The+Riff+Raff","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/cf7/cf7d48b64cce1e202e0319e72f9240ae_md.jpg","artistName":"Hurray For The Riff Raff","artistId":103397,"station_id":280596211},{"musicPath":"/music/M+Ward","artistDefaultImage":"https://artist99.cdn107.com/091/091a02355e4c2b0fe4494b31eea7b895_md.jpg","artistName":"M.
