Bry Webb

If you don’t know the name Bry Webb by now, you a) probably didn’t know the Constantines well enough to learn the lead-singer’s name, b) didn’t arrive early to Feist‘s recent tour dates to see her opener or c) missed all the praise for his debut solo album Provider (out on Idée Fixe Records).  Here’s your opportunity to get acquainted.

Bry recently filmed a Southern Souls session at his home in Guelph, Ontario, featuring an unreleased cover of Burl Ives’ “Sad Man’s Songs” and “Viva” from Provider. The videos mirror the sincerity of the songs; a song strummed during quiet moment at home with Bry’s son Asa playing in the background.

Rivers Of Gold

bry webb

I’ve been keeping my ears peeled for ex-Constantines frontman Bry Webb and his new debut solo album Provider.  Today, I got my first listens to “Rivers Of Gold”, and while its a lot more folky and subdued than what I’d expected, its still heading in the right direction for me to become a fan.  Record is out next month on Idée Fixe Records, look for him on the road opening for Feist.
