I had a post all prepared for today, but the band’s label’s website went caput. So here’s a quick post about a Canadian roots rocker who has a new record out in June On Busted Flat Records. Lucas Stagg has myspace friends like Paul Kelly (whose song he covers on the new record), Townes Van Zandt and Peter Case. So you can see he’s right up my ally.
The upcoming record is called Great Big Gone and is a mostly acoustic affair with help from label mates Tanya Philpovich (who you can hear on “Great Big Gone”), Dan Walsh and Duane Rutter. Here’s the title track and a song called “Kensington Girl”.
