A couple of my favourite performers returned to Lethbridge to play the Geomatic Attic, Oct. 17. Unfortunately I only caught the last few songs of Vancouver blues rock duo Harpoonist and the Axe Murderer’s packed show.
They were backed by Miss Quincy (Jody Peck) and Rachel Cardiello singing beautiful back up vocals.
They brought on Miss Quincy drummer Jenn Foster for the second song of the encore who provided a solid addition to “Axe Murderer” Matthew Rogers, who was playing guitar and his own improvised drum kit for the show.
Shawn Rogers was his always affable and laid back frontman, playing some hot harp and singing in his soothing, soulful voice.
But I arrived just in time to catch my favourite Harpoonist and the Axe Murder song “ Get Out,” which they turned into an extended, groovy jam of almost 10 minutes.
So there was plenty of improvisation and beautiful guitar and harp playing with Miss Quincy adding gorgeous back ground vocals.
