Today's Tune: Erin Passmore - "Downtown"




"Time to find a new interest in a town with nothing to do" sings Erin Passmore at the outset at the eponymous first single from her debut Downtown EP.  Recognizably about Passmore's hometown, Regina, this telling lyric is enough a justification of her continued pursuit of music as anything I've ever heard in a song. Besides, the song is as catchy as anything Passmore has released with her band, and must-see-live party-in-band-form Rah Rah. There's some more justification right there.

The Downtown EP comes out February 28 on Hidden Pony Records. You can stream the entire thing, with flavours of soul, doo-wop, bossa nova and folk at Erin Passmore's site, and you can download "Downtown" for free in exchange for an e-mail address (I suggest your own) below.
