The Musical Republic Of Western Canada is a lovingly crafted tip of the chapeau not only to the artists of the Canadian Prairies, but to the land itself. The long, green and gold fields. The stark, short brush of the coulees. The bigger-than-heaven-itself skies and endless sunsets. The animals and ephemera that populate these prairie highways. From a land that pulses and breathes, Little Jack’s The Musical Republic Of Western Canada is as much a love letter to a place as it is to the music born here, a place where the beauty is revealed with time, and the patience of a long drive across the plains.
