Description

Goth girls to survivalists, bovines to bibles, antique pistols to vintage motorcycles: Alberta-born honky-tonker Corb Lunds songcraft covers it all. From a rustic retreat deep in the Rocky Mountain forest, Cabin Fever, Lunds enthralling new album, evolved from a period of introspection and hard travelling. Just like the prolific Lunds subjects run the gamut, so do the sonics on the live-sounding long-player, ranging from rockabilly to Western swing, cowboy balladry to country-rock. And, of course, the occasional yodel

Cabin Fever follows on the boot heels of Lunds 2009 New West debut, the critically acclaimed Losin Lately Gambler, his sixth album. Backed by his long-time band, The Hurtin Albertans, the JUNO Award recipient has won kudos in his native land; the Canadian Country Music Association has named Lund Roots Artist of the Year annually 7 consecutive years from 2004 2010.
