The Jerry Cans - Life Canadian New

https://soundcloud.com/thejerrycans

Wednesday Nov. 16th the five-member band from Iqaluit, Nunavut are at Babylon here in Ottawa for their album release party, before they head over to Austrailia for a tour there.

A great, epic, sprawling record. Passionate and thrilling with a drop of language bewilderment. A beautiful piece of work.”
— Jim Cuddy, Blue Rodeo

Celebrating their brand new album, Inuusiq/Life the Jerry Cans create danceable, political, powerful music inspired by their lives in Arctic Canada. A unique mix of Inuktitut alt-country, throat singing, rock and roll and reggae, the Jerry Cans are a distinctly northern, one-of-a-kind group — imagine an acoustic version of The Clash mixed with the hilarity of The Pogues. The band perform many of their songs in Inuktitut and are passionate about preserving the language even as the north and their home community of Iqaluit evolve. Jerry Cans music evokes the contemporary Arctic and the spirited people that live there.

In Ottawa The Jerry Cans will be playing with The Hornettes.
