Light Enough

Jaye Bartell - Tuesdays

"Keep Right" is the first song off the new Kate Maki record, HEAD IN THE SAND.  The record will be released on May 20, 2016.

"Keep Right" credits:
Kate Maki - organ, vocals
Fred Squire - electric guitar
Nathan Lawr - drums


Recorded and mixed, predominately in the spring of 2015, at home in Copper Cliff, Ontario with Maki’s husband and audio scientist, Fred Squire, HEAD IN THE SAND is the songwriter’s sixth record since quitting her full time teaching job in 2003.  Despite small basement quarters, the couple managed to create a most compelling and expansive sounding record using a 70s eight track tape machine, an 80s mixing console, a few decent microphones, and a borrowed spring reverb unit.  Friend and master timekeeper, Nathan Lawr, played drums on the majority of the record, steering the songs in new and engaging directions.  Maki and Squire played the rest of the instruments themselves whenever they could afford the time between raising their two young children and Squire’s hectic university schedule.  By keeping the arrangements sparse, and embracing a standard rock formation of guitars, bass, drums, and occasional organ or piano, they allowed Maki’s captivating vocals to become the focal point.  Written mostly in 2009 during a tempestuous time for Maki, the songs examine prevailing matters of the human condition, including infidelity, defeat, loneliness, acceptance, and atonement.

Press Quotes:
“Like the best country singers, Maki's voice is conversational yet somehow self-contained, as if it'd be quite happy talking to itself sitting on an open plain, or whistling to itself behind a wheel.” - Mojo    

“She can sell a song with only her voice and an acoustic guitar.” - Pitchfork

“The Sweet-singing Sudbury school teacher, who deserves all the apples she gets, preaches and teaches with ragged country honesty and heart.” - Globe and Mail

Young Gun Silver Fox’s West Coast End picks up where Daft Punk’s “Fragments of Time” left off—with a modern reimagining of the classic West Coast AOR studio sound of the mid- to late ’70s, when soulful and slick soft rock ruled the FM airwaves. This peak era of sophisticated analog production and stellar musicianship and songwriting produced iconic vibes from artists like Loggins & Messina, Fleetwood Mac, Steely Dan, the Doobie Brothers, Hall & Oates, Carly Simon, Ambrosia, America, and more.

Young Gun Silver fox is made up of singer-songwriter Andy Platts of U.K. soul-rock band Mamas Gun and multi-instrumentalist producer Shawn Lee, an American expat who has made a name for himself in the group AM & Shawn Lee, as well as his solo outfit, Shawn Lee’s Ping Pong Orchestra (see the massively popular and often-licensed “Kiss the Sky” featuring Nino Moschella). With West Coast End, the duo has created a wholly authentic homage to the golden age of California pop—written and recorded in cloudy London.
