The band is The Weakerthans band the album is Reconstruction Site. As many of you know I’m always on the lookout for new, great music. This latest ‘discovery’ happened thanks to my Aunt Sharon. Just goes to show you that great music knows no age.
The Weakerthans are a small-ish band out of Winnipeg, Manitoba and their music is typically categorized as ‘folk rock’ or ‘indie rock’. Whatever you call it, it’s right up my alley.
They have several mp3’s for download on their site but the one that I like the most is Plea From a Cat Named Virtue (mp3). It’s fairly indicative off the overall feel of Reconstruction Site; intimate, emotional topics wrapped in an easy to swallow wrapper.
If you like Plea From a Cat Named Virtue you might as well just go ahead and buy the whole album, you’ll like it, I promise.
