Banff Dispatch 4: Broadening horizons (ie. visiting other band huts)

12:30 AM. We spend most of the day working on our own thing while we’re out here. From our hut, we can hear the sounds of The Witchies, Basia Bulat, and Analog Bell Service practicing. But mostly, we hear Analog Bell Service – they definitely win the “Loudest Band at the Banff Centre” prize. But, they can also play nice and pretty too, and here they did just that after having heard the song in question all of once before recording. Win/Win!
