Returning from another hard tour any day now, Luther Wright and the Wrongs totally rock. Their on-line store is open (www.lutherwright.com), so get ready to try internet shopping there. They are such a heapin’ helping of boogie woogie it just figures that they’ve already done a kids album or two AND have a very funny song about the P.O.T. These guys – former Weeping Tile members, recognized as Sarah Harmer alumni – are amazing live.
An alt-country punk grass collective, that has oft featured Burke Carroll, one of Canada’s finest pedal steel players. As at Hillside Festival 2003, where lots of little kids were up dancing along with the adults. At Nathan Phillips Square summer lunchtime concert, shortly thereafter they had a fiddle chick from Ohio with them instead, and only a crazy lady or two dancing in front of the stage.
Hot, in his polyester clothes, the cutie pie lead singer did a good job of promoting CDs, which are also distributed through Maple Music. All of the band members are strong players, and just plain cool in their own Hatfield or McCoy looking way. Pictured in Eye magazine the day before the departure gig at the Horseshoe, these guitar picking martyrs have been gone too long! I can’t wait to see them at the Shoe again, and trust their fun loving momentum to move my dancing shoes.
