Hobby - Clear Blue River (2025) [Hi-Res]

Summary (in English): The Toronto-based band Hobby has been developing its unique Canadian brand of Americana since 2017. Their third full-length album, Clear Blue River (the first on the Telephone Explosion label), further refines the group's distinctive sound, blending elements of country, folk, and rock music from the last half-century. The band maintains an active touring schedule, deliberately performing in Canada’s smaller cities and towns to present their music to loyal audiences in venues that often lack live, original acts. Clear Blue River showcases a wide range of emotional and musical moods, from gentle, introspective strumming to highly energetic performances. Lyrically, the songs explore themes such as heartbreak, aging, and the passage of time, all sung in Hobby's unmistakable style.
