New review - from Bullfrog Music
Just found out there was a review of my CD over at Bullfrog Music Blogs.
An excerpt from the review:
Funny that the title includes "epiphany"...this music has the flavour of a kitchen concert: picture your favourite uncle, arriving in the night from a long trip and sitting down in the kitchen with his guitar, a glass of rye and ginger at his elbow, telling you stories by singing his songs.
The songs are more than just stories, though. True to his journalistic training, Speers spends time painting little word pictures of trees, birds, people and flavours. There's a feast for the inner eye.
The review goes on to say:
I was wracking my brain thinking up a good name for this kind of music and I came up with Kitchen Canadiana. The music feels so intimate and warm that you want to wrap it around yourself as you sit in front of a roaring fire. The intimacy is enhanced by Speer's deep baritone voice and the mastery of his guitar. The musical style ranges from blues to folk. The subjects are travel, distance, women and longing for someone far away.
