biographical info

Gunning it down the mountain from the dark thickets of the urban backwoods, The Stumbler's Inn deliver their latest batch for thirsty ears. Written on concrete, distilled to perfection in grand-pappy's secret hollow, and recorded at Vancouver's Sound Lounge, their second album, "Get it Right", has hit the streets and it is potent stuff.

The boys of The Stumbler's Inn and their music hearken back to a time when the mountains were poets, men sweated for their money, and to lift a glass together meant you were friends for life [or enemies 'til death]. This second outing from The Stumbler's Inn is a contemporary take on truly classic styles, a ten song tribute to writing and playing from the heart. As brothers, the Myrfields all have their own way. But, like all brothers, they stand together to present a cohesive front you just don't mess with. "Get It Right" is music for the nation it was born in. Whether gutting Atlantic salmon, trading shares driving the Don Valley Parkway, roughnecking in Alberta, or sippin' PBR in an East Van indie club, it's an album any Canadian would recognize. Like any good Canadian, "Get It Right" defies and shirks any constraining classification. It's a bluesy album built on city rock 'n' roll, a shot of mountain country, and awash in the psychedelic vibe that permeates the air of the West Coast they call home. The music, once described as "Blue Rodeo tied to The Doors, soaked in whiskey, and gloriously set on fire" (Baron S. Cameron, The Aging Rockstar Reviews) is at a new height on this cut. The performances are tight and the production clean (co-produced by Kirk Douglas of SWANK! and The Shiloh Lindsey Band), but the songs themselves are best heard playing through dusty speakers on the midway of a carnival travelling this great land from ocean to ocean.
