I Can See Hope from Here, the album’s sole original track, was penned by award-winning producer and songwriter Don Breithaupt and his brother Jeff. Ironically, the song’s genesis was quite literal – a partial view of Hope Island on Canada’s iconic Georgian Bay – but its words take on a much deeper and more universal meaning during this time of restoration and healing. Filmed in Hackett’s Cove, Nova Scotia on Canada’s stunning east coast, the video – a visual poem that dreamily captures the song’s strong emotional message – is directed by celebrated Canadian filmmaker and producer Joel Stewart.

The album offers a fresh take on 14 favourite tracks from Eleanor McCain’s most ambitious project to date—True North: The Canadian Songbook. Conceived and developed to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Canada’s confederation, the album showcases the extraordinary collaborative creativity of 14 arrangers, 28 guest artists, and 10 symphony orchestras from across the country. I Can See Hope From Here presents an abridged cross-section of the many musical flavours of Canada’s vast songbook and serves as apt reflection of the country’s tremendous spirit, broad diversity, and remarkable strength.

Release date for I Can See Hope From Here: September 24, 2021. Available on CD, iTunes, Spotify, Deezer, and Apple Music.
