Cowboy Junkies (Promotional Photo / August 7, 2012) |
Cowboy Junkies — Toronto-based siblings Margo, Michael and Peter Timmins and Alan Anton — have been known to knock out considerable amounts of material in relatively short periods of time. Since 1986, they've released at least one studio or live album every two years or so, and they recorded their multi-platinum selling breakthrough, 1988's The Trinity Sessions (with its terrific cover of the Velvet Underground's "Sweet Jane"), in a mere 14 hours, hovering around a single microphone. They'll bring their brand of alt-country to Infinity Hall on Aug. 10, complete with CPTV film crew, so do something silly and get on TV.
