this year.

Despite being on the other side of the world I am still able to get my fill of indie Canadian music. Thank you CBC Radio 3. As with my other recent recommendation I have caught wind of another track thanks to this great podcast. Mark Berube, a Vancouver Singer/Songwriter, lays down some mean blues/indie/rock/folk tracks. You can grab a number of tracks from his new album ‘What The River Gave The Boat’ at his website, but in the meantime check out the track below, and feel it heave with Vancouver. The opening riff reminds me of the Barenaked Ladies live Christmas medley ‘God Rest Ye, Merry Gentlemen/We Three Kings’.
