The Siren

A man searches the lake for the monster that murdered his husband, while that monster falls in love with an unsuspecting visitor.

​Canadian folk-rock duo Kacy & Clayton delivers endless melody and effortless cool on "The Siren's Song". Produced by Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy, the album's nine songs often take the group into new territory by making use of full-band arrangements, but the songs are still given plenty of room to breathe and explore. The band's previous album, 2015's "Strange Country", earned a spot on our editors' Favorite Folk & Americana Albums year-end list, and The Siren's Song continues to build on its promise.

After a one night stand with the woman of his dreams, Nick starts experiencing otherworldly phenomena in his house during a party. As people disappear, their goal becomes clear: make it out of the party alive or fall victim to the Curse of the Siren.

Is there a more rock and roll name than Hair Of The Dog? Its very thought conjures up left over Jack Daniels swigged from the bottle after a heavy night on the tiles. A purely 1970’s concept wrapped up in greasy biker threads and semi-clad women draped off the arm of the lead singer. It’s a time worn thing and pretty much related to a distant past now, one that maybe should stay hidden. But that’s the rub, it just won’t stay hidden and for every major rock star stating that rock is dead, along comes another new upstart to prove there is life in the old dog yet and this weeks Almost Famous debutants are this rather fantastic band from Edinburgh.
