Weaves has all of the markings of a familiar rock band, but what comes out rarely resembles what you’d expect to hear from a drums-guitar-bass-voice quartet. When the Toronto-based group came to the UK last year I loved the guitar dynamics of Morgan Waters‘ his angular guitar playing including shouting into the guitar f-holes, and the dynamic driving force of the rhythm section. All this great musicianship fuels the songs that singer Jasmyn Burke sets on fire. Jasmyn is on her own planet, one that’s both dauntless in tone and affirming in message. But there are many welcoming moments on the latest album “Wide Open” that can win over a relatively less intrepid listener. The opening track, “#53,” will make Bruce Springsteen fans smile. #53 is the first single from our sophomore LP “Wide Open” came out October 6th, 2017 via Buzz Records, Kanine Records, & Memphis Industries.
