Old soul, baritone, beatnik-folk singer-songwriter from Regina SK, Keiffer Mclean is set for his first Canadian west coast tour. He will be accompanied by bassist Danny Jones (Regina Jazz Orchestra, Regina Symphony Orchestra, and Tim Vaughn) and is electrified to be travelling through the mountains in June. The duo look forward to performing at The Owl on Monday, June 22 – 9:30PM. No cover.
Keiffer had a very successful 2014 with the release of his debut full-length album Drama in the Attic (March 18, 2014). The album is a strikingly lush and original listen that received recognition from the 2014 Canadian Folk Music Awards garnering him a nomination in “Young Performer of the Year” category, as well as strong praise from international media:
Kayla Beattie of BeatRoute raved, “This album would be the perfect soundtrack to a lazy day, while you soak up the sun on the bow of a boat that’s rocking back and forth on calm waters, sipping spiked lemonade and wishing the summer (and the album) would never end.”
Thomas Keller from folkworld.eu said, “He has that easy-going thoughtful hippie voice who likes his beat jazz as much as his folk…This is an accomplished album and should bring a smile to your face as you dig into these fine songs.”
Mackenzie Herd for Exclaim.ca said, “The composition of the album is steeped in tone and riff experimentation made impressive by his ability to craft a fascinating song without distancing the listener.”
