Doug Paisley's latest effort, Constant Companion, has been burning slow but steady since it was released in late 2010 and major critical publications have been taking notice. Mojo, Rolling Stone and Pitchfork are all in admiration of the strength in Doug's songwriting, citing comparisons to the likes of Wil Oldham and Townes Van Zandt. So now, Doug's stepping up his game.
After years of playing (mostly for free) in tiny venues around Toronto, he has recently signed on with No Quarter Records out of Philadelphia and that union finds him on playing bigger and better stages across Canada in the US midwest. This concert at Glenn Gould Studio in Toronto marks his largest paying audience to date.
