Vinyl LP pressing. A native of Swift Current, Saskatchewan Canada, Colter Wall’s sound is comprised of resonate and raw baritone vocals, folk and bluegrass style guitar and banjo picking, steady kick-drum stomping, and visually provoking, story telling lyrics. Since debuting in 2015 with the release of his Jason Plumb-produced EP, Imaginary Appalachia, Wall has received overwhelming acclaim – Steve Earle declares, “Colter Wall is bar-none the best young singer-songwriter I’ve seen in twenty years,” while Rick Rubin, who signed Wall to his American Songs publishing company, proclaims, “Colter sings and writes songs in ways seemingly lost in time. There is an agelessness about him so unusual in someone so young.” The standout Imaginary Appalachia track “Sleeping On The Backtop,” was featured on the soundtrack of the Oscar-nominated film, Hell or High Water.

But when you’re origination point is a remote location by the name of “Swift Current” and is surrounded by the wild prarie of Saskatchewan, your claim to the music of the country is as valid as anyone’s, if not more.
