Cam Penner: To Build A Fire

To Build A Fire

Cam Penner

Cam Penner's fifth album is an extraordinary piece of work. Edgy, raw and thoroughly original, this is alt-folk with numerous unexpected twists and turns.

The surprises come as early as the first track, the instrumental Mighty Damn Animator (So Long, Farewell). I definitely wasn't expecting to encounter a brass section. The style book is continually ripped up as the album progresses. There's some Woody Guthrie-style material some contemporary folk and even a touch of banjo-driven rap on Memphis. One things for sure - no two songs could be accused of being similar!
