Loving all things twangy - everything from Patsy melancholy to Dolly kitsch then to earnest Wilco stuff, Drive-ByTruckersm, Old 97s/Rhett, Whiskeytown/Ryan..... - I can't help but suggest any & all attend tomorrow night's CD Release party for Emily Weedon & Delta. It'll be one of those bankable 'I knew'em when...' moments. I promise.

Last week's Globe about 'On His Sleeve' on the record: "A slow waltz about a hard-drinking, lying, bruising blowhard who, the tune tells us, was also the sweetest love ever. From an indie LP from an arresting Toronto singer whose blend of steel twang and spun silver places her somewhere between Dolly Parton and Blossom Dearie." - Robert Everett Green, The Globe and Mail
