A Flat City

Description

The 11th album by Son Of Dave starts with explosions. After 26 years spent in London, UK, he is back in the Canadian prairies and still demands attention. Themes of flat Midwest towns, classic rock-loving truckers, and a strange call. Son Of Dave's usual bag of tricks colors the album: Blues harmonica, beat-box, cheap electric guitar, and that voice that shouts and sings his own brand of Blues-infused old-school R&B. As always, he plays with different rhythms: Funk, Boogaloo, Rock-Steady, or Techno, always in his own way. How to categorize a Son of Dave album? He has become his own style, loved and shared by millions of fans around the world. That's why you'll find his music in the soundtrack of Breaking Bad and many others. You'll hear him on college radio or on blues radio programs of the baby boomer generation, from Switzerland to Argentina. A true non-conformist Bluesman. Most of the record is entirely done by himself. All the writing, instruments, editing, recording, mixing, and artwork. Three exceptions are "Where's The Party At", produced by long-time London collaborator Tim Gordine, and two recorded on Vancouver Island by Zac Cohen at the charming Woodshop studios, "Yahoos" and "I Told You All I Know".
