Patrick Watson releasing Wooden Arms - here's the first MP3

DOWNLOAD: Patrick Watson - Tracy's Waters (MP3)

Patrick Watson

Written during a Montreal winter and recorded in Montreal and Iceland, Patrick Watson's 'Wooden Arms' cements him in the territory between serious composer and indie pop artist, with stage charisma to spare. Watson produced the album with his band, bassist Mishka Stein, drummer Robbie Kuster, and guitarist Simon Angell. Secret City Records will release 'Wooden Arms' on May 5 in the U.S.
"Tracy's Waters" is track two on the new album. Download it now for free above. If you don't know Patrick yet, think M Ward and Jeff Buckley. In 2007 he won the Canadian Polaris Music Prize. Full album tracklist below...

beautiful song... I don't think it sounds like anyone else, really.

Amazing. Thanks. I had this when it was still untitled from a session he did (as an mp3) and saw them do a version of Tracy's Waters live in concert and yet another version of it at the Canadian (I forgot what it was called) award show. Good to see they finalised it and put it on the coming album.

They rock.
Although I do hope the album will sound more like the first one (Just Another Ordinary Day) or (dare I say it) Patrick's solo experimental piano suite Waterproof 9.
