about

"Nero's Waltz" is the second album from Saskatoon bluegrass boy band the Local Group, to be released on June 17th via Grey Records. The songs were written, worked, and reworked over the course of the pandemic. The result is a collection of songs captured almost entirely live off the floor, with subject matter ranging from the apocalyptic overture of the title track to loneliness, spite, love, and snowmen. It was recorded in the heart of winter in Micah Erenberg's cozy cabin-turned-studio, a short walk from a frozen Lake Winnipeg. With Clayton Linthicum of Kacy and Clayton at the producer's helm, Nero's Waltz respects the time-honoured sounds of traditional bluegrass while incorporating a wide breadth of instrumentation and textures.
