Transistor Sister 2 [CD]

Are you ready for the new sincerity?! Shotgun Jimmies new album Transistor Sister 2 is full of genuine pop gems that champion truth and love. Jimmie is joined by longtime collaborators Ryan Peters (Ladyhawk) and Jason Baird (DoMakeSayThink) for this sequel to the Polaris Prize nominated album Transistor Sister from 2011. JosÈ Contreras (By Divine Right) produced and recorded the record in Toronto, Ontario at The Chat Chateaux and joins the band on keys. In characteristic Shotgun Jimmie fashion, the songs on Transistor Sister 2 focus largely on family and friends with a heavy dose of nostalgia. Jimmies hyperbolic takes on the everyday reconstruct familiar scenarios, from traffic on the 401 (the beloved and scorned megahighway through Toronto known to all touring musicians as the place where punctual arrival at soundcheck goes to die) to cooking dinner. The albums lead single Cool All the Time is a plea for people to abandon ego and strive for authenticity, featuring contributions by Chad VanGaalen, Steven Lambke and Cole Woods. The New Sincerity serves as the albums manifesto; it renounces cynicism and promotes positivity.
