Wide Mouth Mason came roaring out of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, in 1995, a Canadian blues-rock band with the prairie dust still on its boots. At the heart of it: Shaun Verreault, singing lead and wringing his guitar for everything it's worth, and Safwan Javed on percussion and backing vocals. Former bassist Earl Pereira was there at the founding too.
Their idea of the blues runs hot enough to pass for hard rock: fat, greasy riffs, a rhythm section that swings instead of plods, and Verreault's voice shoving right up against the top of the mix. It's music that sounds built for sweaty rooms rather than studio polish.
Rained Out Parade, released on Warner Music Canada in 2002, is the record that brought them to rock radio's countdowns, with its title track and "Reconsider" both making the cut.
