Secondhand Dreamcar

Secondhand Dreamcar is a 9-piece soul and roots band fronted by Canadian Folk Music Award-nominee Dana Wylie and also featuring notable producer Harry Gregg on bass, Jamie Cooper (Up and Over Trio, Obsessions Octet) on drums, Kyle Mosiuk (The Hello Darlins) and Chad Murphy (Dallas Smith) on guitar, Rooster Davis on organ, and a horn section led by Dave Babcock. This group of Alberta heavies is crafting a distinct, funky, and lyrically driven sound that journalist and programmer Peter North has deemed the most exciting thing to come out of Edmonton since KD Lang and The Reclines. The band recorded their debut album Answer the Call at Gregg’s studio Riverdale Recorders in November 2023, and it is set for release on October 11th, 2024. While Secondhand Dreamcar is brand new, its members are all seasoned pros, and have collectively released or been featured on hundreds of albums, and have won and been nominated for dozens of awards. And like the serendipity that brought them together, their music has that special kind of magic that can no more be explained than denied.
