There's so much good folk rock out there. Another band to add to the mix is Acorn, an Ottawa based band who have a charming sound that recalls Tallest Man on Earth, Bright Eyes, and The Swell Season. The vocals are crisp, near perfect, grabbing. A voice you want to hear. The music--pretty, soft, yet dynamic. They release a new album on Sept. 7 called No Ghost. The album is already available digitally. 

The band have been touring around the world for the past two years behind their concept album, Glory Hope Mountain, about front man Rolf Klausener's mother and her life story, and retreated to an isolated cottage in northern Quebec earlier this year to work on No Ghost.
