«While Escaping est une offrande à découvrir. Les amateurs de Sufjan Stevens et compagnie devraient tout particulièrement apprécier.»
André Péloquin - Bang!Bang!
«The picture depicts a brightly lit town surrounded by nothing except snowy barrenness, a sight both unfamiliar yet curious, and it’s within this icy, sincere, enchanting place that the Montreal-based singer-songwriter locates his unique sound.»
Amanda Ash - EXCLAIM
A Dusty Melody
«DT Lam's wishful tune about longing and humility sounds like the prayer of a working man whose god has gone off shift. Lam's high, slender voice is the sound of desolation itself, though the polyphonically expanding accompaniment hints at better times to come.»
The Globe and Mail - Essential Tracks
Robert Everett-Green
I have a crooked drum, some rusty harmonicas, coffee stained teeth, songs written in a kitchen somewhere in Montreal and a 71 telecaster that I bought in Israël. Somehow things are ok. Music is endless. Buckley said that. I guess this is my way of saying, yes, music is endless.
I’ll sing you stories I read in books, stories I made up lying in bed, melodies I stole from the past, melodies I invented along the way. The stage is everywhere. I wish I could play everywhere. This city is as beautiful as any other city I’ve seen. Maybe it’s because I saw Andre Ethier, Hayden, Jason Molina, Jeff Tweedy, Neko Case and so many great artists standing in front of me. Maybe it’s because I wanna share my songs.
Maybe it’s because Dylan sang the blues and Cohen sang his poems. Maybe it’s because this city is dirty and broken, but wonderful and blissful at the same time.
Maybe it’s… all of that. Maybe it’s just because music is endless. I wish Jeff Buckley was still alive.
