about
No Depression magazine calls Li’l Andy “Montreal’s best country songwriter.” The Village Voice describes his music as “Roots-based Americana that actually deserves to be made”. In the past decade, he has released 5 albums, toured Canada extensively, and has been featured in the New York Times. His latest release, The Complete Recordings of Hezekiah Procter (1925-1930), is a new album, a new band, and the singer’s debut novel.
The Complete Recordings of Hezekiah Procter (1925-1930) is at once music, history, fiction, biography and recorded performance art. A two-disc, 29-song box set also including a 150-page novel telling the story of Hezekiah Procter, the tracks were painstakingly recorded on both analogue tape, and using pre-electric, 1920s technology.
The album earned Andy nominations for Songwriter of the Year and Traditional Singer of the Year at the Canadian Folk Music Awards, a nomination at Quebec’s GAMIQ awards, and accolades from the international press. “This is a project that really deserves to be properly recognised for the triumph that it is,” says Americana UK.
Available as a digital album, a novel, and a deluxe box-set at Bandcamp.
