The Citizen, 2008-05-08, Page 33THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, MAY 8, 2008. PAGE 33.Two of Edmonton’s emergingsongwriters - Nathan Carroll andBrock Tyler - are performing songsfrom their acclaimed records atCinnamon Jim’s Upper Deck in
Brussels, Saturday, May 10, 8 p.m.
Tyler and Carroll’s folk/roots
stylings are rich with lyrical
prowess, gripping harmonies and
sensitive, skillful instrumentation
(seasoned with guitars, banjo and
pedal steel).
Carroll’s debut record, The Tie-In
to Dyin’, was released in early 2007
to rave reviews and sold-out shows.
There are a variety of song styles
and timbres on album, with music
and lyrics for 11 of the songs written
by Carroll and arranged by himself
and producer Tyler.
Before I’m Gone is written as a
tribute to Carroll’s grandfather who
is entering the advanced stages of
Alzheimer’s Disease. Pallbearers
Song is a witty look at Carroll’s own
funeral day and the people who will
“walk that final mile” with him.
Along with these original pieces
are two revitalized songs: a rendition
of Tom Paxton’s, The Last Thing on
my Mind and Laser Beam by Low.
Tyler is a multi-instrumentalist
songwriter with Winnipeg roots
currently residing in Edmonton. His
debut album, Unclosing, was
released in July 2007
Eden Munroe, of Vue Weekly,
highlights his song, Sparkle Street as
a fine example of the thoughtfulness
that marks this album, “taking what
could pass in mere moments of real
time - walking along a sidewalk,
getting in a car and heading home -
and elongating it to the point that itfeels like slow motion. The songitself doesn’t drag, though,shimmering as it sets the scene withlittle urge to hurry along.”
Coffee House tickets are available
at Cinnamon Jim’s Café.

Tons of finds
Auburn was buzzing early Saturday morning with bargain hunters making their way up and
down village streets for the various garage sales set up. While the weather was overcast, the
rain stayed away for much of the morning until the skies opened up in the afternoon, giving
people a good four hours of shopping time. (Shawn Loughlin photo)

“Grand River is an established
full-service propane supplier with
customers throughout the region,”
says Steven Sparling, vice-president
of operations at Sparling’s. “The
company was privately-owned by
the McGregor family and it has
demonstrated a sustained
commitment to customer service
and steady growth. It’s a great fit for
Sparling’s as we continue to expand
our regional presence in the
Waterloo-Brant-Norfolk-Halton-
Peel and Niagara market.”
Sparling’s will continue to operate
from the Grand River facilities in St.
George and welcome Jamie
McGregor and his team.
Sparling’s is a privately-held
company, established in Blyth in
1951.
