EXCLUSIVE NEW DOWNLOAD: City and Colour - Body in a Box

When Dallas Green of Canadian post-hardcore act Alexisonfire needed a name for his acoustic side-project, he transposed his first and last name into "city" and "colour," a trick that is maddeningly effective in its simplicity. A Juno award for Alternative Album of the Year and about 2 billion myspace plays later, Vagrant is re-releasing his debut album "Sometimes" for the first time stateside, and we're lucky enough to bring you "Body in a Box," another study in effective simplicity. Guitars, harmonica and organ from the '70-'75 Neil Young songbook and the slightest touch of Jeff-Buckley-warble frame Green's musings on life, love and the irony of funerals, and everything clings together delightfully.

Sounds Like: Okkervil River, Fire on Fire, Jon Foreman
