One of my favourites from Victoria… Northcote has a new record in the pipe. His third album will be titledHope is Made of Steel, and is due out on September 25th (Black Box Records).
We have our first single to listen to today called “Hope Is Made of Steel.”
Dave Genn produced the record (Matthew Good Band, 54:40) here in Vancouver.
“There is a clarity to the songs that I think I may have struggled with in the past.” (Matt) Goud said in a statement. “I remember playing at the Horseshoe in Toronto last summer and a friend asked me what a particular song of mine meant to me, and I didn’t haven’t a very clear answer. I feel on this record, I have written a batch of songs that are more direct and feel less safe. I challenged myself to be more lyrically direct on this album, and I believe I have accomplished that.”
Northcote is touring in the early fall with The Glorious Sons. Here are the BC dates.
