Synopsis

Product Description
Queen's Hotel is John Wort Hannam's fourth full-length recording and second release on Black Hen Music, a follow up to his critically-acclaimed 2007 album Two Bit Suit. Once again Juno award winning Steve Dawson takes the helm producing 11 tracks of authentic Canadiana folk/roots music. Queen's Hotel was recorded live off the floor at Vancouver's The Factory. Musicians sat in one room facing each other in a circle and played the songs - no bed tracks, no click, and no overdubs except for a few harmonies. With many of the same players as his previous recording: John Wort Hannam on guitar and tenor guitar, Steve Dawson on dobro, national, and weissenborn, John Reischman on mandolin and mandola, Rob Becker on upright bass, Geoff Hicks on percussion, and Jeanne Tolmie, Tyler Bird, and Jenny Whiteley on backing vocals, Queen's Hotel has a pared down and subtler sound compared to Wort Hannam's previous recordings and leans more on the folkier side of the folk/roots spectrum.
