Okay, so here’s what you’re going do for the good of your ears and your soul:
1) You’re going to listen to Greg MacPherson. Lucky for you stealing won’t be required, because he provides a large number of tracks for download from his site, you just have to know where to look. So, first go to the downloads page and grab those 9 tracks, then slide over to the discography page and grab 3 more ($6 All Day, Invisible and Genuinely Frozen). Just like that we’ve obtained 12 tracks from this wonderful east/west coast artist.
2) Now listen to Numbers first, then Good Times, then Bankrobber. Pretty good eh? Feel free to queue up the rest of the tracks, as they are equally good.
He was raised in front of a television, got a degree in Labour History in the mid-nineties, dug graves in a cemetery for 6 years, and turned to music both for an escape from the uniform and as an outlet for his considerable creativity.
I wish that I had some mind blowing commentary to share about this guy, but I don’t, and the brief bio above shines a bit of light into his life. I can’t wait till he comes back through town, as I would love to see him live. Reading it seems he’s played with the Drummer from The Weakerthans, so hopefully that friendship can result in a show together. oh ya, The Weakerthans. They rock my socks off, and are my current band of the moment. I think I’ll be able to find some words to describe them, and will in due course. I just want to put in writing that I found them first.
