Toronto's Bruce Peninsula will release their first full-length album after working on it for more than a year.

A Mountain Is A Mouth will be released as a download on Tuesday and on CD on Feb. 3 through the group's Bruce Trail Recordings label.

Bruce Peninsula feature a large and fluctuating lineup that often includes three drummers and a five-woman choir. The experimental folk group include Matt Cully, Misha Bower, Katie Stelmanis, Isla Craig and Ohbijou's Casey Mecija. Sebastien Grainger & The Mountains drummer Leon Taheny (Final Fantasy) engineered the album at various Toronto locations, including St. George The Martyr Church and Ryerson University.
