Jon and Roy
Homes
(Pacific Music/Warner)
****
If Victoria, B.C was to have a soundtrack, its hometown product, Jon and Roy, would be the ideal choice to provide the laid back vibe it seem to cater towards. Following the critically acclaimed Another Noon, the lush, folkish J and R’s third release Homes invites the summer in an almost irritatingly relaxed way. From the beginning of the mellow, backwoods opener “Any Day Now,” to it’s final melody “Deerfoot,” the Victorians sedative and whispery sound accompanies a peaceful feeling akin to Jack Johnson (without making you feel a bit embarrassed for liking it.) Jon and Roy play the Starlite Thursday the 22nd and their show promises to make you forget all your worries and forget all your cares.
