The Wheat Pool
Summer News
July 1, 2008
Happy Canada Day from The Wheat Pool! Summer 2008 is going to be a good time for the band.
In just a couple more weeks the band begins a series of shows between Edmonton and Vancouver they are sharing with No Horses. No Horses is a Vancouver band of gritty, dirty country rock. Formerly called Mud River, they shared a stage with The Wheat Pool a couple years back and have been looking for a chance to do some shows together ever since. Don’t miss these gigs, July 14, 15, and 16, in Edmonton, Calgary, and Vancouver.
The Wheat Pool has been taking a break recently following a long 8 month push of the release “Township.” A couple of career changes in the band member’s personal lives needed to happen, and now the band is excited to use the down-time to begin work on a new record. You may have heard a few new songs sneaking into the setlists over the past few months. The remainder of the summer is going to be spent writing and rehearsing the new record, with plans to begin in the studio following the fall show schedule.
Of course there will be more shows here and there around Western Canada during all of this, so keep your eyes open!
