Trans-Canada Oil Boom Blues INFO Whitney K and band are back with an electric live album that captures the best from their classics ˜Two Years™ and ˜Hard To Be A God™, including a few nuggets from the back catalog and the unreleased tune aptly titled ˜Dire Straits™. If ˜Two Years™ was the thunder, the rawness and the spirit, a combination of outsider folk, modern psych, grit, humor and everything in between, ˜Hard To Be A God™ was the sophistication, the dedication, the mind traveling far and beyond„ ˜Vivi!™ is the hot sauce missing, the perfect setting, the inevitable gift, really putting the word ˜motion™ behind the poetry, the electricity carrying the rollicking combo, the road opening up literally wide and infinite and the wide-eyed dreams becoming a coliseum standing in front of the chaos. Recorded live in Montreal upon returning from Whitney K™s first European month long tour, ˜Vivi!™ is a vivid, exuberant and jarring photograph of a band that™s lived to see the force of ˜togetherness™, a ritual, a communion of sorts where emotions run free and into the unknown. ˜Vivi!™ encapsulates everything that makes Whitney K unique, the freewheelin™ songwriting, visions painted with utterly precise strokes, rock™n™roll bravado, sonic interplay, feedback and shimmer, velvet touches and goldmines, Modern Lovers, Television, Fred Neil, Harry Nilsson, Karen Dalton and the jingle-jangle of tomorrow. Played beautifully by Konner Whitney, Joshua Boguski, Marlon Kroll and Avalon Tassonyi, there is no way back, only one way in and it™s positioned crystal clear right in front of us. Alive.
