With comparisons to Tom Waits & Bob Dylan, Shawn Crowle's quasi-conceptual debut album paints the portrait of a dark and dying small town on the prairies and the lost souls that reside there. A dusty, smoke-infused melancholic with just a touch of hope.

Details:
With comparisons to Tom Waits, Shawn Crowle's quasi-conceptual debut is a portrait of the human condition, scattered with moments of heartbreak and hope, love and loss and a search for understanding.

Elegy is as intentionally rough-edged and lovely as the characters that populate it. Formed around a base take of guitar and voice, the songs are made up of simple, sparse arrangements falling in around the words, always keeping the story at the forefront, creating a stark musical picture of ungainly beauty.
