The surprising part is not that this Quebec outfit mixing country music, folk, surf, and a dash of Elvis exists, but that they have been doing this for three decades plus and yours truly is just finding out.
Really, this review only needs five words: Francophone spaghetti western rock songs.
Get your headphones on and listen to this master of mood make his way across the undulating sands, the wet guitar reverb, warbling organs, crystal-clear claves, and snaking melodies sounding like surf music for a desert holiday.
Swimming out from the multicolor wave of Australian psychedelia that's been lapping our shores for the past decade, this band has revealed itself to be a quality addition to any activity that might involve sunshine and the words "relax" or "enjoy."
Hot and honky, the latest from this nine-piece shows off immaculate arrangements and complex interplay as they range in tempo and intensity from police car chase to sunny afternoon by the pool. Especially recommended if you like a flute wandering in.
