“I'm sure we all know plenty of miserable people who seem to have it all and plenty of blissful people that seem to have close to nothing. This song is about the efforts one makes to find some easy fix, unable to recognize that it will never work that way, that we are in the end our own responsibility." - Taylor Goldsmith, Dawes

Slowcity.ca Open Mic with The Avett Brothers, Evangeline Gentle, Niki Black, Shirley Collins, Soccer Mommy, Aislinn Logan, and The Actual Goners,

By Will McGuirk

Sticks and stones will break your bones but names can never hurt you but names, memes, avatars, icons, stereotypes do hurt. Cursory summaries, quick glances, are the building blocks of our entertainment economy. If you want to be known wear the same clothes. Every song has a hook, every act has a look. Avoid that rush to judgement, speed kills, slow down and learn up. We look too much and listen too little. Stop overlooking.

The Third Gleam will be available on August 28. Track list: 1. Victory 2. I Should've Spent The Day With My Family 3. Prison To Heaven 4. Back Into The Light 5. Women Like You 6. Untitled #4 7. I Go To My Heart 8. The Fire

Niki Black · American Spirits - Niki Black

“Can I still connect with my America Spirits as the daughter of an Iranian immigrant mother? This song is an answer to that. Yes, I can and I will. But, this will come with a lot of uncovering and opposition against the unjust reality of what America has mean since its bloody conception and its chaotic, violent reality today.” -Niki Black

By Will McGuirk

Really enjoying this latest album from Sarah Jarosz, ”World on the Ground”; there’s a touch of Harry Chapin, a touch of Gordon Lightfoot and a touch of Neko Case and at a time when touch is rare thats a whole lot of goodness right there. The good is the details as the kids say.

“Making this record definitely taught me that I don’t want to be selfish: I want to channel something larger than myself and give myself to the process as fully as possible, because these songs also become the story of whoever hears them.

Slowcity.ca Open Mic with Sundown, Jon Stancer, Absolutely Free, Nation of Language, Luke De-Sciscio, and The Rentals,

By Will McGuirk

The Early Morning Rain and Sundown are on my mind - there you don’t have to read my mind now - I’ve been humming Gord Lightfoot’s hymn of the airliner of late, “because I miss my loved ones so” and somehow think I may never see them again - so I say don’t take it all for granted - take this as a sign - we miss touch and the wheels and wings which bring us closer.

“Hear the mighty engines roar - see the silver bird on high/ She's away and (eastward) bound - far above the clouds she'll fly/There the morning rain don't fall and the sun always shines /She'll be flying over my home in about (five) hours time.”

and the Sundown ?- no not that, this. . .
