Twangy, downcast Canadian country
Nick Ferrio’s been performing on Canada’s indie country scene for several years, and released his self-titled full-length debut last year. He’s back with a new 45 (and yes, that is a 7″ disc of vinyl that spins at forty-five revolutions-per-minute beneath a turntable’s diamond stylus) that includes a new A-side, “Half the Time,” backed with the album track “Other Side of Town.” The top side is a lament of a lost love whose draw has yet to let go, the flip is even more pained as the of object desire is just across town in the arms of another. Available individually or by subscription to Seventh Fire’s record club. [©2013 Hyperbolium]
