Canadian music still rocks! Part II

I have over the last few days been listening to a band that never quite made it mainstream, but nevertheless influenced scores of young musicians back in the early 90's. The band is none other that The Lowest of The Low"...do I hear crickets? I'm not surprised if you haven't heard of them, they were really only popular around Southern Ontario and Western New York. However, after listening to them again after this many years I am amazed by the staying power of their music and incisive lyrics.

The reason I am getting back into them is because I have recently picked up my guitar and started playing after many years of neglect. I learned of The Low at exactly the time I was learning to play guitar so I ended up learning a number of their songs. Another band that I learned to play guitar to was The Lemonheads. They're not quite as brilliant in the lyrics department, but nevertheless still so fun to play.

It's funny to me that what has returned me to playing music hasn't been new songs, but the same old ones, albeit experienced in a new way as I age and mature.

I also hope that you find joy in the same old songs experienced in a new way.
