Oncle Jazz

Their 24-track first record as a trio, reworking singles from 2016 to 2019.
Men I Trust, 2019

Oncle Jazz was self-released on September 13, 2019 and runs 24 tracks and about 71 minutes. The band told Billboard that the green, isolated surroundings of rural Quebec shaped its sound, and a reviewer reports that "Seven" was written during a stay at a lakeside cabin. Bandcamp lists album versions of "Say Can You Hear", "Pierre", "Poplar Tree", "You Deserve This", "Alright", "Show Me How", "Pines", "Dorian", "I Hope to Be Around", "Tailwhip", "Numb", "Days Go By", "Norton Commander" and the title track; reviewers also name "Slap Pie", "Fiero GT", "Poodle of Mud" and "Porcelain". We could not verify a full tracklist with times, a producer, studio or personnel.

God Is in the TV's Matt Hobbs called it an incredibly enjoyable listening experience and a recommended prescription for the blues; The Fader's Salvatore Maicki heard a gorgeous and gauzy meander.
