This episode features blues musician Declan O’Donovan from Whitehorse, Yukon.
His music is influenced by the sounds of Americana, Blues, Folk and Roots, finding inspiration from artists such as Bob Dylan and Randy Newman. Declan’s raw and gritty voice layered over his adept piano playing makes for a unique listening experience. Although his songs are at times dark and consistently poignant, he frequently underscores them with twists of wicked humour.
Declan is accompanied on stage by Lonnie Powell on drums and Paul Bergman on upright bass.
We recorded this performance at the Village Bakery’s out door stage in Haines Junction, Yukon, in July, 2015.
