Secretly Canadian

Just came across a label called Secretly Canadian
that’s putting out a wide variety of new and old names with a common
sound and theme.  Tomorrow night a group from the label called the
The Impossible Shapes will grace the stage at the Hush Hush Lounge
in San Francisco.  This band is out of Indiana and they produce a
sweet neo-psychadelic/ country fare that’s mellow and “midwestern” (a
new adjective I made up that refers to a romantic rolling hilled past of grand
pasteurs and sunny scaped solar flare). 

 Also on the label is the
evolving sound of Damien Jurado. 
I first heard a song of his called “Tornado” and immediately fell for
his story telling and unconventionally honest voice.  Here’s a
sampling of some of the great tracks I came across today:

Damien Jurado : Texas to Ohio
The Impossible Shapes : The Perfect Timing
The Impossible Shapes : Naked Bullrush
