It's "too beautiful too fuck." I've been avoiding writing about Kevin Drew's upcoming solo album (to be released September 18th) even though I'm loving what I've heard so far...sad, no?
Broken Social Scene fans will know - well, I just gave away the punchline - Kevin Drew through his work with the band, but having never been a huge BSS fan, I'm favoring the quieter, more personal approach of his solo work. I'm pretty sure you'll like it too.
Damn those Canadians and their amazing musical talent, damn them all to Canada.
Kevin Drew - TBTF [highly rec'd!]
Kevin Drew - Fucked Up Kid
Pre-order Spirit If... from Insound
Kevin Drew's Website/Myspace
Labels: broken social scene, canadians, kevin drew
if you like the more mellow side of kevin and company then you should give their KCRW Morning Becomes Eclectic performance a listen. leslie feist is there but no emily haines. an awesome display of musicianship in my opinion - incredible acoustic interpretations of their eponymous album.
