Comments (0) Best One-Man Avant-Pop Act - 2008
Dugout Canoe
The one-man band is not a new thing. Not even in Denver. Reverend Dead Eye was once, and is again, a one-man band providing percussion, guitar, harmonica, guitar and vocals. Rather than inspired gospel blues, however, Dugout Canoe produces a rougher, much more experimental indie pop that defies easy categorization, since it incorporates elements of drone and folk as well as collage sound. This one-of-a-kind one-man band doesn't really fit into any scene and plays only warehouse spaces and house shows, but he's clearly a leading light showing the way to something new.
