Juxtaposers play CCR influenced original music

E-mail Print PDF

 This time, Don Cassell took centre stage with the Juxtaposers at the Slice, Dec. 19 where they were releasing their debut CD for a decent sized crowd of Don Cassell of the Juxtposers. Photo by Richard Ameryabout 40 people.
 Don Cassell played guitar and harmonica and sang in a weathered, raspy voice that would do CCR's John Fogerty proud.
 

He played a variety of gritty rock influence original songs with most of Toques and Beards as the backing band featuring Tyler Bird on guitar, Brett Skauge on guitar, Taylor Ackerman on bass and electric piano and Avery Friesen on drums.


Their classic rock styled music sounded like a blend of Credence Clearwater Revival and  Crazy Horse. So there were a lot of big guitars and gritty choruses.


They also had a very strong blues influence especially in the guitar solos.
 Ali Stuart also joined them on stage to sing guest vocals on a couple slower, more stripped down songs.
