Starting off 2012 with a bang, or maybe more accurately a stomp, Greg Rekus is teaming up with Ottawa’s folk punk commander Jon Creeden, and Baltimore’s political folk activist The Ghostwrite to unleash a massacre of music and mayhem across the Pacific side of North America. After a very successful year of touring Canada and the States in 2011, Rekus is filling in some of the blanks as well as revisiting a few familiar stops on the way. Starting off in Winnipeg on Jan 4th, Greg is playing his way west to Vancouver and crossing into the USA for the 2nd time, touring his way south as far as California. After making his mark on the West coast he doubles back to the Midwest for a few shows in Chicago, Milwaukee, and St Paul and more. Live, Greg’s act can be described as punk rock meets outlaw country hooked up to a huge transformer to kick up the energy to 1.21 gigawatts. The lyrical content stretches from drinking in your favourite bar, to the friends you have, to quitting your job, political jousting, life in general, and then back again. All this when strumming the hell out of an acoustic guitar and stomping the beat out on his custom built stomp box. Produced and engineered by sound wiz John Paul Peters, “The Dude Abides” has 10 original songs showcasing a raw, stripped down, bare bones sound that ears everywhere drool over. For 5 days Greg and John locked themselves away in Private ear studios escaping exclusively for delicious burritos, gourmet pizza, and spontaneous listening sessions on the van stereo. The out come was a punk stomp album that is trading in some of the traditional elements for a frenetically played acoustic guitar, and stomp. cds are available through interpunk http://www.interpunk.com/default.cfm?show=191604 gregrekusbooking@gmail.com Read more on Last.fm.
