Doug Hoyer (2014)

Edmonton, AB

Young and comely, pop rock troubadour, Doug Hoyer, is a vitriolic member of the capital city’s Old Ugly Recording Company. Doubling-down on romance and humour, Hoyer is celebrated for his austere, yet quirkily-embellished, songbook. From the Muppet-inspired “Lakes of Mars,” to the digital drift of “Snow Bank,” this sauterne musicologist will leave you starry-eyed and hungry for love. Who else would you trust to deliver your “Bulgogi Pizza” at 2 a.m.?
