biographical info
Songs Of The Wild West Island. 12 idiosyncratic new songs of hope, despair, resurrection and a 2-headed calf. Including the haunting duet, "Only Lovers" featuring Sarah Harmer.
Loomer's sophomore release expands on their exceptional debut. Scott Loomer's songwriting and the band's rich, cinematic sound, compliments of Andrew Lindsay, Brian Duguay, Mike Taylor, Iain Thomson, and John DeHaas, move them into the upper-tier alongside stalwarts Ryan Adams, Wilco, and The Jayhawks. From the opening notes of Bang The Nails to the closing of Endless Holiday, Loomer stakes their claim as one of the best bands working in the loosely-defined Americana genre. -- Jeff Weiss, Miles of Music, USA
