We zitten nu middenin een bijna eindeloze stroom nieuwe releases. Ook mij kost het soms moeite om met zoveel nieuw werk het kaf van het koren te scheiden. Ergens in die stroom dobbert ook een nieuwe plaat van Ruth Minnikin rond. Je moet erg goed kijken om haar album Depend On This op te merken. Ruth Minnikin is een spil in de scene van Nova Scotia en was eerder lid van de Guthries en de Heavy Blinkers . Ook al is het jaren geleden dat de Guthries en de Blinkers hun werk uitbrachten, albums als [...]

Nova Scotia group Ruth Minnikin & Her Bandwagon released their peppy orchestral pop album Depend On This in the fall.

Ruth Minnikin and the bands she played in were always ahead of the curve. I mean, Booming Airplanes got signed to EMI when she was barely out of high school and without a doubt, if The Guthries were making music today in the " everybody wants to be a rootsy, lap steel heavy, cowboy shirt wearing music player " they'd be huge. That same "what if" type pondering could easily be applied to the orchestral pop The Heavy Blinkers delivered so well. So even though Ruth's solo work was strongly rooted in [...]
After a month off (having a child go through heart surgery was only slightly more important than blogging), we are back with the herohill/music nova scotia band of the month . September seems like the perfect time to settle into the sounds of Ruth Minnikin and Her Bandwagon . The Haligonian song writer has been a part of some of the best (and most criminally ignored) bands to come out of the city, The Heavy Blinkers and The Guthries . If the internet and blogs existed like they do now, The Blinkers would [...]
