What started as a duo to an awesome some odd number multimember group is now down to the solo works of Kevin Drew, Sort of. "
Spirit If..." came out on Sept. 18th from
Arts&Crafts and is supposed to be just the first of many "Broken Social Scene Presents" albums. It was a lot less solo and more of the awesome BSS goodness from the past as Kevin invites former bandmates, contributors, and vocalists to the
scene. You got your Leslie Feist, Emily Haines (Metric), Amy Millan (Stars) and a slew of instrumentalists from past projects and meets collaborating into tracks. The Harmonies, the slightly-er softer indie sound, and this overall
sonic embeded album rich with lyrics, is an awesome leeway into future projects that keep me wondering who will be on the next album and what to expect as far as sound goes. Either way I just listened to the entire album and it definitely gets our recommendation to go
pick it up. Please check out these songs to entice you a little and then go get the album.
Drew will be bringing his crew out for a
U.S. tour starting at the end of the month, for the Locals, Oct. 30th,
Orpheum Theater up in LA with one of our favs New Buffalo. Support that!
