The Boathouse Victoria Park 17.02.2021

A Long time ago Sheldon Rourke used to hitchhike from Montreal to Kitchener to play the boathouse. It was always a good time. Well he’s just wrote a few new tunes. Enjoy The Stones, Stooges, Pogues ,Social D & Guns 'n Roses are part of your daily fix??? With equal parts punk,glam,grunge & country twang...SHELDON ROURKE will sooth your cravings for the '70's cocaine-fuelled ROCK...YOU NEED?%$#@!... Rourke's latest atempts at saving what is left of rock n roll have not been very successful over the years...Still drawing heavily from childhood heroes Keith Richards, Ace Frehley, GnR(especially Izzy Stradlin) Mike Ness, Dave Pirner(Soul Asylum) & Shane MacGowan of the Pogues/Popes...Mr.Rourke(who has turned 51 last november)is hitting back hard ...way out of the park this time...Combining gritty punk attitude, honky-tonk toughness,and rockabilly swagger, Rourke spins tales of depravity (No Cuntrol,Hard to Handle,Pass the Bottle) that would be downright depressing if they weren't so foot-tappingly catchy... a world-weary tough guy--with equal parts Punk, Trashy rock n Roll & country twang...Rourke & his band is hard at work on a full length album...no scheduled date as of yet...so get off the wagon & on the nite train!!!! "Pass the Bottle" Will be the first single off the "LOVE IS HELL EP" scheduled to be released on Valentine's day 2021...just in time for St.Paddy's Day celebrationshttps://sheldonrourke.bandcamp.com/album/love-is-hell-ep "Gettin' Better" Due out on April Fool's 2021 https://sheldonrourke.bandcamp.com/track/gettin-better-2 Watch the "Brand New Day" video on youtube & let me know whatcha think? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JRkireoZFmA#

LEAD BELLY (1887-1949) aka Huddie Leadbetter was born in Mooringsport, Louisiana and was discovered by John and Alan Lomax while in the Angola Penetentiary. He ...became famous overnight from a "March of Time" Newsreel film in 1935, in which he recreated his story. He went on to New York and for years was associated with the early leftist folk music scene, doing shows with Josh White, Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie, Sonny Terry and others. He recorded his massive repertoire, which was hundreds of songs, for several labels, and he was one of the first to tour Europe. His incredible, powerful tenor voice, backed by his 12 String guitar showcased blues, his original ballads about the Titanic, Hitler, and Howard Hughes. Cowboy numbers, children's songs, waltzes, sooky jumps, protest songs and more. I am still hypnotized by his amazing and thoroughly singular style. New Nationals, Fairbanks, and Scheerhorns, WORLD'S #1 SOURCE: www.catfishkeith.com/whyilovenationals.htm This photo was from his last year, 1949, and comes thanks to the Smithsonian.
