About
Town Pants
Label: Independent
since circa 1997
Singing songs of love, death, lamenters lamenting, sea disasters, terrible hangovers, The Town Pants play aggessive celtic tinged fast-folk. As one critic wrote, "...Songs that old men in pubs can sing, and that kids can dance to" - all played on a pawnshops worth of acoustic musical instruments but with the vigor & gusto usually not considered for "folk" music, and good original songwriting a cut above what's also typical of the genre.Based in Vancouver but frequently seen gigging about Vancouver Island. The band has also played throughout the rest of Canada & Europe. Their latest album Piston Baroque was produced by Spirit of the Wests' Hugh McMillan...
