54-40 - Northern Soul [rock]
54-40 is a Canadian band active since 1981. Of the four original members, guitarist Phil Comparelli left in 2005 and was replaced by no other than former Matthew Good Band guitarist, Dave Genn. Actually, Genn is the reason I even happened across these guys. And, naturally, I digg the guitar-work by Genn, though I'm probably super biased.
This song is "Northern Soul", the titular track off the Northern Soul album from 2008. The sweet-sounding accompanying vocals are provided by front-man Neil Osborne's daughter, who now records under the moniker Kandle.
All-in-all, nice song, though I guess the antiwar sentiment's a little too blatant for me (not that I'm anti-antiwar).
