Single Release

Can this be love

C-Weed Band just released the first single to their newest studio album,
C-Weed Band Forever. The album is the country star's first since releasing a greatest hits album, Magic in the Music, in May 2010.

With fourteen new songs on C-Weed Band Forever, recorded in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and produced by Marc Arnould, the album keeps the traditional C-Weed Band sound while dabbling in genre cross-over with some rock and blues tunes. “I’m trying some new things and keeping it fresh,” says Ranville of the album which features the now seven piece C-Weed band with two new female backup singers. “But there’s still pure country in there for our serious country fans.” The first single released, ‘Can This Be Love’, is available now on itunes.

The album completes a journey of healing for Ranville since a tragic car accident left him seriously injured and took the life of his wife while on their way to perform at a concert in October 2010. “It’s time to get back to the magic of music,” said Ranville who spent 63 days in hospital recovering after the car accident. “I have found healing in doing what I was given the gift to do.”

Ranville was recently honoured with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Aboriginal Peoples Choice Music Awards for his work over 30 years within the music industry and with aboriginal musicians.
