Who: Eamon McGrath from Edmonton, now Toronto.
What: This is your soundtrack to summer rock and roll in sweaty bars.
Bridging gaps between Eamon McGraths Albertan prairie roots and the spirit of punk rock that fills both his lungs and his words, Eamon’s sophomore record Peace Maker is rock and roll and country music thats punctuated with an adolescent howl served straight, no ice; with its roots in an urban centre that stands tall like a tower in the emptiness of Canadas heartland. It was recorded inVancouvers at JC/DC Studios with John Collins of the New Pornographers and Dave Carswell of the Evaporators. 20 songs hed written about broken hearts, empty bottles and loud guitars. Stories of retribution, redemption, and resurrection.
