You may not immediately recognize the name Lonnie James, but if you’re familiar at all with the Canadian indie rock scene of the1990s, he was a ubiquitous presence, playing drums for a seemingly endless array of artists.From iconic Vancouver punks D.O.A. to Toronto cult heroes The Lawn, and from Montreal legends The Nils to Halifax’s Super Friendz, James was an important contributor to what remains the most vibrant and influential period of Canadian rock and roll. After a lengthy hiatus, and back home near Calgary, Lonnie James has now returned with a new project dubbed ModernFolkRevolution recalling in the process the lo-fi majesty of The Vaselines and Guided By Voices, coupled with Byrds and Kinks-style paisley-tinged flourishes.
