Feeling the void of no new materials from Leif Vollebekk?
Have no fear! I got this email from Landon A.R. Coleman.
He will drop his new album “A Single Life” on August 15, 2011.
Landon is a Edmonton ex-pat now living in Ottawa.
From his Facebook it says “Landon Coleman sings folk music with his eyebrows.” how cheeky!
When I mentioned Leif, it is because he help produced this album.
The album is ten tracks filled with great folk pop bluegrass tunes.
Didn’t know that Down To The Wire is a Neil Young track and it has this intimate acoustic feel.
While another cover Rock Salt and Nails just felt like timewarp whenever that song was made back in it’s days.
Listening to the whole album, you can hear the similarities of Leif`s vocals.
Somehow I couldn’t tell if I was listening to Leif or Landon.
It didn’t matter since it was nice to listen to it.
Best tracks:
- Give My Hips to the Girls
- The Weekend Times
- Waters Frozen
- Down To The Wire
- Montreal, You Never Call
- We Caught Aflame
- Rock Salt and Nails
Give it 8.5/10.
Don’t that Landon will be playing some house show on August 19th. Details to be announced.
