"All You Need To Know" The Vancouver outfit Mossy Ledge got started in the early '90s and by 2001 they had put in the reps, touring across Canada and putting out two excellent albums and two fabulous EPs. With seven years or so under their rock and roll belts, the band was poised to take the next step in their career. Their sonorous blast of soaring indie pop brought to mind a perfect blend of The Watchmen and Catherine Wheel and with a solid live following and hooks galore, that next step seemed decidedly inevitable. So inevitable, in fact, they decided not to take it. The story of Mossy Ledge is the story of a band whose story should be more familiar, but at the height of their powers, the Canadian outfit opted for curtain number two, which sits in close proximity to curtain number one. The latter is the tantalizing and promising rock and roll dream, while behind the former is the logical and sensible domestic life that holds just as much promise. Behind both curtains are two different kinds of riches and a cool head knows that number two probably makes the most sense in the long run, but number one is a seductive character and behind it danger and desire eye each other carefully. Well, long story short, danger and desire weren't seductive enough and the members of Mossy Ledge stepped away to live their lives. What could have been is a thought exercise that would keep anyone up at night--and let's face it, we all have our own version of that. And look, the Mossy Ledge guys didn't have a bust-up or any severed alliance--they just made a decision and went their separate ways. Until now. Breaking a nearly twenty-five year absence, the band is back and ready to pick up where they left off. This is such a cool story and James Milligan, who sings for the band, is such a cool guy and when he tells the story, you'll totally get it. So let's let him do just that: here's me and James of Mossy Ledge having a chat, right here on Stereo Embers The Podcast.
