Snooze

The summer album release calendar is heading up.

Toronto singer-songwriter Meg Remy, aka U.S. Girls, a critical favourite and Polaris Prize shortlister is releasing her new album Scratch It this week. She recruited a strong group of Nashville players including Dillon Watson (D. Watusi, Savoy Motel), Jack Lawrence (The Dead Weather, The Raconteurs, Loretta Lynn), Domo Donoho on drums and harmonica legend Charlie McCoy (Elvis, Bob Dylan, Roy Orbison). In just ten days, Remy and the band recorded Scratch It live off the floor with minimal overdubs, mixed to tape, old-school style. It's a max of country, gospel, garage rock, soul, disco, folk and more.
