Sporting a minor sonic crush on Vancouver’s Wake Owl right now. I can’t hear the “Wild Country” enough.
Trolling Alan Cross’ blog the other day (its pretty much a daily read) he talked about how he was into these guys. Honestly, I don’t click a lot of AC’s new music recommendations because his style and mine don’t always jive (I still LOVE AC and the blog) but I guess in a moment of weakness I clicked to listen and wow. So pretty.
AC calls it Ontario cabin country music. He’s in Ontario. We’re here on the coast, so this is coast music. This is camping bonfire canned beer music.
The Wild Country ep is a “pay-what-you-want” download. So don’t be shy.
Vancouver’s Wake Owl will be giving us many opportunities to see them in the coming summer months.
July 13th-15th >> Vancouver Folk Fest
August 25th-26th >> Live at Squamish
September 13th-16th >> Rifflandia!
I am pretty excited now to check these guys out at Rifflandia. I hope its a day that I have free to enjoy the concert!
My favourite song is “Wild Country.”
Wake Owl – “Wild Country”

I’ve had the song blasting pretty religiously this morning. If its on vinyl it’ll make a good home record. I find chillwave and folky stuff I listen to the most on vinyl. I guess I am usually in that mood when I’m at home.
Coral has now set the dining room table up for regular everyday eating and we have it a rule. Eat.at.the.table. The record player lends it self to slow eating, whole foods/moods. I can see Wake Owl being an important part of a balanced diet.
That’s all I got for now… Go with yourself.
