Lee Harvey Osmond Catching the Ears of the United Kingdom
Friday, March 5th, 2010
This is what they are saying across the pond about Lee Harvey Osmond…
What a great name. You gotta love it… Choosing a name like Lee Harvey Osmond means that you have also got to be able to back it up musically if you are going to pull it off with any aplomb. The Canadian band (yes another one), are an interesting beast. Musically they have much in common with the likes of Ry Cooder and fellow countrymen The Band, so the music is as you might expect slick, inventive and engaging, earning them the label of ‘Acid Folk’. Led by former Junkhouse front man Tom Wilson, the band has a stellar cast of musicians on display, 17 to be precise and each one of them does indeed pull it off with aplomb.

LEE HARVEY OSMOND on NPR’s World Cafe
January 28, 2010 from WXPN – With a career that stretches back three decades, Tom Wilson remains one of Canada’s most prolific and talented songwriters. Since his days as a guitarist and vocalist for bands such as Florida Razors, Blackie & The Rodeo King and Junkhouse — and as a prolific songwriter for artists such as Billy Ray Cyrus and Mavis Staples — Wilson continues to make unexpected career moves. His most recent project, LeE HARVeY OsMOND, finds him concocting hazy acid-folk with members of Cowboy Junkies, The Skydiggers and The Sadies.
Although Wilson guides the band’s musical direction, its debut, A Quiet Evil, has the unmistakable soundhttp://latentrecordings.com/leeharveyosmond/wp-admin/post-new.php
