No Sinner is a blues rock quartet based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The group is led by singer-songwriter Colleen Rennison.[1]
Rennison worked in New York City but returned to her hometown of Vancouver to begin writing with former associate, Parker Bossley. She started a rotating back-up band to fill her weekly Thursday night performances at Guilt and Company, which was then a club in Vancouver's Gastown district. Among the musicians playing in the band were current bandmates Eric Campbell (guitar) and Ian Browne (drums). No Sinner recorded their six-track debut album Boo Hoo Hoo, which was released in 2012 on the Vancouver-based indie label, First Love Records.[2]
No Sinner later signed with Provogue Records, with whom they released Boo Hoo Hoo throughout North America.[3] Following the release of their debut album, No Sinner went on a North American tour, during which they performed at the South by Southwest (SXSW) festival and the WXPN "Triple-A Non-Comm Convention". Their "Non-Comm" performance briefly placed them amongst artists such as Coldplay, Phish, and Jack White under the category of "Annually Most Added" artists on non-commercial radio.[4]
Interviews and press coverage of the band has appeared in VICE/Noisey,[5] Indie Shuffle,[6] Classic Rock Magazine,[7] Exclaim!,[8] and others. No Sinner has also played festivals worldwide, including the UK's Dot to Dot Festival.
The band's second album, Old Habits Die Hard, was released in May 2016.
