Dave McCann features new rhythm section



Wednesday, 14 February 2018 10:25 Richard Amery I always look forward to a Dave McCann show, but missed his first set at the Slice, Feb. 2. The Lethbridge roots/ alt country musician had a new rhythm section of bassist Shawn Worden and drummer Kyle Harmon joining McCann and lead guitarist Dave Bauer playing pure and tasteful leads.

They opened with “Beautiful Road” from their last album and an older highlight “ Road To Cain.” plus “Dixiebluebird.”

But they also played some new songs. “Slow Train” was a highlight.

McCann strummed his acoustic guitar and let Bauer handle the catchy hooks of  his numerous catchy earworms.

He switched to electric guitar for a couple of songs and a couple of new songs “Can’t Have it All” which had a Bo Diddley feel and “When The Crows Come to Carry Me Home” which I love every time I hear him play it.
