POSTED OCTOBER 9, 2006
Based out of Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, singer-songwriter Joel
Plaskett is preparing a new album for early 2007 with his band The
Emergency.
During a brief tour stop in Toronto as part of the CBC Radio 3 concert
See Vous Play (which also featured Emily Haines & the Soft Skeleton,
Les Trois Accords and Les Breastfeeders), Plaskett talked to Popjournalism about
how the new album's shaping up.
"It's going to be a fun record," he says. "It's shaping up to
be a bit of a rock opera concept record."
Pre-production began in September and songs are still being written for the
release, Plaskett says.
The album will be produced by Gordie Johnson (Big Sugar,
GRADY).
