Neil Young has been soliciting protest songs over at his website, and among 898 others, he picked up two tracks from a great lo-fi pop duo (and great friends of mine), Crayon Resist. Will life for Crayon Resist imitate art?(If so, Vancouver will have to hunt for new troubadors.) As of 11/28/06, find their songs “Code Orange” and “Emerald City Tigers” under the “New Listings” column. Or, you can go to their website for those songs plus a handful of other mp3s. I also recommend that you email them and bug them for the Ruby Lee record, which was their previous, higher-fidelity incarnation. One of the best indie pop records I’ve heard in years.
