I’ve always liked The Guess Who but I’m totally digging Our Lady Peace here. Thanks!
Thanks H E. Our lady peace is pretty good. I think the singer was married to Chantal kreviazuk for a while. She was pretty big up here a few years ago. Don’t know how much exposure she had down there
The Blackie track reminded me of Shawn Mullins.But Blackie was good.
Shawn Mullins. Haven’t heard that name in a while. Blackie is kind of a let’s get together here and there band. The sum if the parts is quite good but the parts are good as well.
