The Seams are on hiatus....
The Seams, caught somewhere between the roaring 20's and the future, are proud to release their debut album, "Castaway Motel". The band combines whiskey-country and prohibition-era jazz with pop hooks on their original album, and in a compelling live show they’re winning over new fans nightly. Founding members Cameron Latimer, Rueben deGroot and Adam Dobres have been playing and writing together since 2002 and came to this collaboration from various projects. The Seams feature a unique brand of vocal style with Marissa Johnston, Cameron Latimer and Rueben deGroot all trading lead vocals while the others add sublime harmony. The exceptional lead guitar talents of Adam Dobres and Juno award winner, Steve Dawson’s pedal steel and Wiessenborn skills give a distinct flavour to the Seams’ original sound. Steve Matheson (Bass) formerly of the WPP, and Dave Moran (drums), formerly of Alpha Ya Ya, provide the band’s solid rhythm.
With contemporary influences ranging from Lyle Lovett to Wilco, and roots that
go back to artists like Paul Simon, Gram Parsons and EmmyLou Harris, and Django
Rienhardt, The Seams tip their hats to their heros without falling over themselves. The songs’ subjects are as diverse as their styles, the characters are depraved and hopeless but always witty and funny. From the texas hill-billy rock of The Ballad of Brian Lewis, a cryptic murder-suicide ballad, to the pathetically funny prison romance of Jailbird, sung in the Seams unique vocal duo style, it would appear that The Seams can redeem any hopeless wreck. The John Player Special’s slow 70’s groove is a typical example of how the band refuses to play any one style and Duel in Ragtime’s Chet Atkins-esque romp gives the listener more than a little idea of how this band can heat up the live stage. If you haven’t already heard of them, someone is sure to tell you about The Seams.
