    The very first time listening to the tragically hip in the early 90s, I actually thought they were a American group. I thought what a unique and amazing band, I found out later they were a Canadian band, not that it has anything to do with their music, but I became a hip fan, and still am, I'm an ojicree native, and the hip had fans everywhere I'm sure, their music most definitely had a universal language that spoke to many.

      Casey from The Dear Hunter. Dallas has the voice of an angel but has become overrated this past decade. Casey's got one of my favourite voices with a lot of range, he's also a way better musician & songwriter than Dallas. & I've seen Dallas & Alexis over 15 times here in Toronto. I even have an Alexis tattoo, but yeah, The Dear Hunter blows him away. No question. Incredibly underrated. I'd recommend The Dear Hunters Audiotree Live session & the Color Spectrum live DVD on UA-cam. They've only gotten better with age
