about

Canadian born alternative indie/folk artist Hail Taxi releases an ode to his native country’s forthcoming 150th birthday celebration with the release of his ‘Wild Rose Country’ single.

Digitally released via UK label Engineer Records on 9th June 2017, Hail Taxi reflects upon his up-bringing in the province of Alberta, Canada. The place in which he grow up, met his wife and developed his true passion for music. ‘Wild Rose Country’ is a folk edged love song that gradually keeps building towards a harmonic and emotional climax. The solo artist gained recognition in the UK and further afield with his 2016 EP release ‘Apart For So Long’ (Engineer Records) which introduced Hail Taxi as a diverse talent immersed in producing material that treads many musical paths from folk roots to alternative country and indie pop.

lyrics

Yellow, green and gold
These colours come to mind
When I think about home
The mountains and the trees
In Banff and Lake Louise
Is where most people go

But where I first saw you
Was in Camrose, Alberta
I never questioned why
And I don’t intend to
We live glorious and free
In Wildrose Country

The city to the south
I’ve been to the stampede in Calgary
The gateway to the north
The city I was born in, Edmonton

But where I first saw you
Was in Camrose, Alberta
I never questioned why
And I don’t intend to
We live glorious and free
In Wildrose Country

Wildrose Country

But where I first saw you
Was in Camrose, Alberta
I never questioned why
And I don’t intend to
We live glorious and free
Where I first saw you
Was in Camrose, Alberta
I never questioned why
And I don’t intend to
We live glorious and free
In Wildrose Country
