Hey Rosetta! - The Simplest Thing

I remember seeing Tim Baker play for the first time at the Wilser's Room many moons ago, a quiet little songwriter session right around the time when the first EP came out. It was a game-changer. The whole room was mesmerised with what we were hearing.

Now after more than a decade of traveling the world the band is taking a well-deserved break. It's not really a surprise, they've been planning their escape since the beginning. Maybe a couple years down the road we'll catch them at a reunion show or on a random corner in St. John's would seem fitting.

This song stuck with me then and still done many years later. No video for this one. Hit play, close your eyes, and go wherever it takes you.

Hey Rosetta! - New Sum (Nous Sommes)

This one came out last year but it's snowing out now so it seems appropriate now. Hey look! I'm all caught up. Nice work time machine! Now to keep on schedule...

Bucket Truck - You Walk Behind

Bucket Truck are serious metal rockers from St. John's, Newfoundland. Don't hear that much do ya? Apparently not everyone from The Rock wants to hear bagpipes and traditional celtic music. I heard this track years ago and thought it was sweet, then just kinda forgot about it.

Sadly it seems as if the band has broken up. It would have been awesome to see them at a Metal Monday at the Capital. This is part two of a couple videos they made to go along with each other. The audio quality isn't great, but if anything it just adds to the grittiness.


Watch part one here: "If It's All The Same".
