Midwest Dilemma presents orchestral folk songs and waltzy ballads on their debut release titled "Timelines & Tragedies." Twenty-three members, consisting of strings, woodwinds, brass, orchestral drums, and nontraditional chamber instruments accompany singer-songwriter Justin Lamoureux. "Timelines & Tragedies" is a timeline of family history, tracing Lamoureux's ancestors to their days of French Canadian fur trading, the struggles of his parents' generation with Vietnam, concluding with his life in Omaha. "Timelines & Tragedies" is the perfect outcome of Midwest Dilemma's vision.
dude thank you so much... I enjoyed your music so much. Hopefully we can do something soon once all things are finished. Dude, your record sounds so good. Take care friends.
Hey guys. Come on out to Oregon. You sound good. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people in Portland would like your stuff. I could be wrong though. I often am. Thanks.
Last night was awesome! You guys brought down the house! I have it all on the flip too. Once I figure out how to forward them I will.......(not so good with the mechanical devices. )
great set last night, despite the minor mic problems...what can you expect when you have a dozen people on such a tiny stage? it was really great though. you got my vote...take care! -adm
