The band teamed up with Winnipeg vets Rusty Matyas and Cam Loeppky to produce <em>We Were Found in The Fog<\/em>. The result is a comforting, diverse collection of indie rock. The sound is polished, the lyrics precise. Album opener \u201cSharks\u201d shows off Roy\u2019s knack for storytelling and songwriting as does the title track.. \u201cReservation Girl\u201d especially stands out, telling the story of somebody\u2019s heart that\u2019s been broken many times and who has lost their faith in love. Roy\u2019s voice is timeless and blends perfectly with his wife\u2019s Jodi (keyboard and vocals) throughout the album. \u201cI See Love,\u201d a catchy pop number that debuted at #1 on CBC radio and is making the rounds on local radio. This album is comforting, warm and from the heart.
