BRUCE’S RECOMMENDATION OF BANDCAMP MUSIC
Music: “White Man”
Album: SO LATE SO SOON
Artist: Katvanger
Artist Location: Netherlands
Info: “Katvanger is a blues-tinged trio that defies description with a mix of originals that cannot be easily pigeonholed. Some might call it roots or Americana, but in fact, Katvanger’s idiosyncratic eclecticism defies description. With a conspiratorial wink, they’ve often described it as dubious blues, twisted roots, counterfeit country & western, and improbable jazz.”
Jan Vereçki – lead guitar and backing vocals
Ruud Fransen – bass and backing vocals
Jim Wake – lead vocals, rhythm guitar, harmonica
“No one could have anticipated all that has transpired since Katvanger first recorded these 15 tracks, but as it turns out, they seem — far more than intended — to reflect a moment in time when much of what we thought we knew about the world seems to have been turned on its head. Love and death in the age of Trump — the title of one of the tunes — is strange, scary, and uncertain. Truth is variable. You may be better off with a healthy dose of skepticism than blind faith in your lover, your guru, or your leader. You may have great plans for the day — or your life — but it’s almost always later than you think. And the reality you are stuck with is almost certainly not the reality you ordered.”
Price: €1 (EURO) for track; €8 for 15-track album
Genre: Blues-Tinged Pop.
