    John Cowan & Andrea Zonn – The HercuLeons (True Lonesome Records) The names you likely know. John Cowan first made his name as a singer and as a bassist with the New Grass Revival, despite not having been schooled in a bluegrass background. This didn’t stop him from helping bring huge crossover success to the band when he joined for their second release – a success which continued until they disbanded some 14 years later.

    Antonio Andrade – Here We Go! No one can say Antonio Andrade doesn’t have a sense of humor. He boldly starts his set with a “Looney Tunes Medley” (Tracks 1-4) & while one would take this with a grain of salt & dismiss it as novelty shtick – it isn’t. Antonio’s arranged & performed these melodies with a good sense of medley & with enthusiasm & a few shots of harmonica. Each tune is short, concise & nostalgic.

    The Scarlet Goodbye – El Camino Adios This showcase, according to its press, is a collaborative effort produced by Minnesota musicians Jeff Arundel (acoustic guitar/organ/vocal) with additional production by Daniel Murphy (ex-Soul Asylum & Golden Smog on electric guitar/vocal). The vocals on the opening tune “To Feel the Sun” are sung vigorously in unison to good effect.

    Kris Delmhorst – Ghosts In The Garden (Big Bean Music) If you knew nothing of New England-based Kris Delmhorst, your first take on Ghosts In The Garden might conclude that she pays rent to live on the more dreary side of the singer-songwriter spectrum.

As the TDSB waves its mighty sceptre towards closing schools-blind to their role in each community-why aren't we shutting down the TDSB?
