| "Calahoo" is in the can! |
Kevin and the crew just returned from
Baker Studios on the west coast with 12 new tracks recorded and mixed. Working with mad scientist/producer Joby
Baker (Cowboy Junkies, Outlaw Social and The Bills) they conjured up some magic moments. Joining Kevin in Victoria
were the usual suspects Kory Burns/bass, Jason Cundal/drums and Cam Neufeld on the harmonica and mandolin as well
as special guest and old friend Lester Quitzau on guitar. Joby added some great atmospheric touches on organ, Werlitzer
and percussion.
The new disc "Calahoo" will hit the streets this fall so
stay tuned folks! |

| Cook and Neufeld |
Mesmerizing ideas flow from the
guitar of Kevin Cook like liquid amber.
The Alberta-born musician's album "Western Union" puts his own original and confident stamp on a country-blues
style that sounds old and new. Cook is an experienced tunesmith with a gift for finding the right words. His live
show is energetic
and unpredictable. Armed with a vintage 1920's parlor guitar, Kevin travels from coast to coast sharing the stage
with some of the best roots artists in the business, like Colin Linden and John Hammond.
Cook tours as a duo with Cam Neufeld on fiddle, mandolin, banjo and harmonica. "If it's got strings he can
play it". From Appalachian fiddle tunes and claw hammer banjo to bluesy-gypsy swing, Neufeld is a master of
many styles. He also records and performs with his own instrumental group.
This duo has collaborated on a number of projects, including the soundtrack to the TV documentary film " One
More Mile." Kindred spirits in their affinity for authentic roots music, "When these guys get together,
the sparks fly!"
