"Blue Rose Recording artist, Trevor Alguire, is not just another talent in the inexhaustible pool of strong Canadian singer/songwriters but one with all the qualities needed for an international career, as evidenced by his debut solo CD, As of Yesterday".
Alguire, hailing from a small town just south of Ottawa Ontario, first drew attention in 2004 with the release of the album Narrowed Down (under the guise of his band Mercury Pickup). The album was critically acclaimed in the press with frequent comparisons to artists such as Steve Earle, Tom Petty, Blue Rodeo, Wilco and Uncle Tupelo. These comparisons said As of Yesterday was proof that Alguire was only at the start of such musical depth.
Within four months of releasing As of Yesterday, Alguire has gone worldwide with consistent radio play across Europe, Australia and North America, and recently signed on with Blue Rose Records (Kris Kristofferson, Steve Earle). Two of Alguire’s songs have since been released on Blue Rose Records compilations along side (Gurf Morlix, Steve Earle & Dwight Yoakam.)
Multiple Juno award winner Keith Glass of Prairie Oyster (Canada’s premiere roots music ensemble) collaborated with Alguire to produce and play on Alguire’s upcoming album. The newly recorded second solo album was released on July 13/08 opening for Martha Wainwright at Ottawa Bluesfest.
Having toured extensively in 2007 from coast to coast across Canada, plans are in place to continue touring North America and Europe to promote his new album.
“Alguire tells tales of life on the road, his words painting pictures of his country and its people. He is a great story teller with empathy and emotional depth matched by a warm sonorous and strong voice, reminiscent of Richard Buckner, Tim Easton and Michael Hall.”
