New Track: Michael Feuerstack – Bones in the River
A new track has surfaced from Michael Feuerstack, the sentimental gentleman formerly known on the stage as Snailhouse. His first album sans-moniker is due out in May 2013, called Tambourine Death Bed (Forward Music). Feuerstack is one of Ottawa’s indie legends – now based in Montreal – he has many ties here including early work with Jeremy Gara of The Arcade Fire (also from Ottawa) and his Wooden Stars project that ended up winning a Juno for Best Alternative Album (with Julie Doiron) in 1999.
The new song “Bones in the River” is in the same open and honest vein of music Feuerstack is known for. The beautiful finger-picking of the guitar, the natural and unfettered character of his voice, they make for a great preview of what we might expect from Tambourine Death Bed. The song also appears on Beau’s new Spring 2013 Mixtape, which is chock-full of Canada’s greatest musicians.
