About Me

DOGHOUSE DREAMS REVIEWED!!B Borzykowski NOW Magazine| JUNE 21 - 27, 2007 | VOL. 26 NO. 42Reviewed this week:THE UNDESIRABLES Doghouse Dreams (independent) Rating: NNNNThere are intimate records, and then there's Doghouse Dreams by Georgetown, Ontario, duo the Undesirables.Sean Cotton and Corin Raymond have since moved to Toronto, but this stripped-down disc sounds like it was recorded right on their rural Canadian porch. Combining blues, ragtime and country with touching lyrics about their hometown, this disc is a great summer cottage listen – especially the boozy opener This Town.While the gritty, Kid Rock-like choruses and infectious harmonies are worth a listen alone, it's the warm production – it sounds like they're playing right in front of you – and simple arrangements that make this a memorable listen.The Undesirables play Hugh's Room June 23.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
