Allison Russell - ‘Montreal’

lyric video
Written By Max Mazonowicz
“In this track, I give thanks for my wondrous hometown of Montreal. I was a teenage runaway - I believe in many ways the City herself protected me. I wandered the Mountain at all hours and slept in the graveyard in the summertime. I haunted the Cathedrals and slept in the pews. Sometimes I stayed up all night playing chess with the old men in the 24 hr. cafes. I got to hear Oscar Peterson play for free in the park during Jazz Fest… I was very lucky to grow up there.”
— Allison Russell

Allison’s debut solo album, Outside Child, is out on 21st May and Allison will be playing a live Bandcamp stream that same day. Find out more on Allison’s official website.

I’m the editor-in-chief. The guy who looks after this whole damn place. And the music you see here is the kinda sounds that I’m into. They’re my questions, but not my answers.
