The Be Good Tanyas

It's Not Happening

Label: Nettwerk Release Date: 24/02/2003

3349
gdobson by Gareth Dobson February 24th, 2003

Simple, rustic and bewitching; The Be Good Tanyas weave earthy acoustic charm into a song which is so featherlite, you fear it might be blown away with the tumbleweed in the breeze.

Guitars and banjos gently rattle away accompanied by the sweetest of voices in what amounts to a fine example of porch propping up, pipe smoking lamenting honesty from Canada’s finest all-female country trio. Do you need to know more than that?
