Critiques CD: The Jon Cohen Experimental | Behold

Monsieur Cohen has earned his stripes in Montreal’s indie trenches over the last decade as the multi-instrumentalist go-to guy for such artists as The Dears, The Social Register and JF Robitaille, while forming this here project back in ‘06. What we’re listening to is the trio’s second album – laid to warm and fuzzy analog tape at Dave Draves’ Little Bullhorn Studios (Howe Gelb, Wooden Stars, Kepler, Kathleen Edwards) – a thoroughly enjoyable collection of mellowed and aged pop-rock songs. Guests include Krista Muir, Angela Desveaux, as well as members of Stars, The Stills and Elephant Stone. September 16th at Bain Mathieu.
