The Acorn & Christian Taylor
Ottawa based collective the Acorn dig on themes: their first record was a "tribute to the Outaouais region," and now a few years on, their second full-length is based on the life of lead singer Rolf Klausener's mother, Gloria Esperanza Montoya (hence titled Glory Hop Mountain). And as you'd expect from a band that writes about regions and moms, the music is subtly sweeping and agreeably melodic, or at least it is on the polyrhythmic road-traveler "Crooked Legs." Maybe expectedly, there's a big natural element at play with fireflies, gardens, and errant wandering on the table before the Acorn bursts into a marimba 'n' horns inflected groove. "I'm going as far as these coroked legs take me / I'm watching the road with two young eyes to guide me," is Klausen's optimistic 'n' weary credo in this cut, and for five minutes, it's a story we believe.
