Justin Rutledge

The Devil On A Bench in Stanley Park
Six Shooter Records

This is a collection of songs that lyrically address life’s dark corners, while the musicality provides a subtle-but-catchy ray of cheer. Rutledge’s voice shines, as evocative and captivating as the content of the songs themselves, while he plays guitars, banjo and harmonica. Also featured are pedal steel & dobro from Burke Carroll and support from Blue Rodeo, including some cutting Keelor electric guitar. Ten strong Canadian Americana songs recorded in ten winter days at Woodshed studios in Toronto, invite listeners to embrace a journey where quiet men make their stands and highways speak their minds.
