Description
Another in a series of jaw-droppingly good records from Victor Lewis. Vic’s new disc follows on from his last release under the “Hickory Switch” moniker, floating around in the classic rock and psychedelic realms without firmly setting foot in one or the other.
The songs sound at once totally new and strangely familiar; fresh and worn in.
Victor Lewis has much in common with Mark Oliver Everett, Grandaddy, Beck and Badly Drawn Boy, all of them spilling over with creative juices and dexterity. You will never, ever grow tired of one of his records.
Seriously… never!
Victor Lewis (a.k.a. Vickee Lou, Vic Lou, etc.) is arguably Newfoundland’s most innovative and eclectic indie-pop artist. We liken him to a young David Bowie.
