Montreal musician and songwriter. Banjo plucker. Guitar slinger. Sleep deprived new dad.
It’s already been a month since Clouds of Dragonflies dropped. Can’t believe it! To mark the occasion, I’ve released a visualizer to one of my fave tracks off the record: Last Goodbye! You can see the whole thing on YouTube, of course! #albumrelease #canadianmusic #folk #animation #artwork

Montreal music I love, part 4:
Myriam Gendron: late to the party, but better late than never. Just the kind of folk I love. Traditional and modern. Anglais et français. This track reminds me of Sweet William, an English folk ballad sung by Shirley Collins among others.

Been waiting a while for this one. What a great album by Richard Dawson.
'In the Age of Anxiety we find ourselves in, it's increasingly apparent that human connection, in its myriad forms, is the only thing that matters, and also the hardest. Dawson’s music propels us into its deep meanings'

Montreal music I love:
3) Arielle Soucy: my fave musical discovery of late. Gorgeous picking, layered vocal harmonies and timeless songwriting. Sings en français and a little in English too. Check this clip from a Sofar session I was at last year:

Recorded in Nashville with seasoned locals, this is Will Oldham’s take on a country album. A sort of companion to his two previous studio LPs, it’s also his best and most focused in some time

Gens de musique à Montréal: aucun idée si c’est la bonne place pour cette genre de question, mais est-ce que vous connaissez quelqu’un qui répare des amplis guitaires? J’ai un petit problème avec le mien. Probably an easy fix 🤞
