Saturday Sounds - Rusty McCarthy - Great Lakes Nocturnes

Rusty McCarthy is a guitarist, songwriter, and producer living in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. When I was in high school he was in the biggest local band, the Polisi Bassoon, and went on to a successful musical career in Southern Ontario before moving back to the Sault. 

He has numerous solo albums and this week I'm featuring a collection of instrumentals called Great Lakes Nocturnes. With titles like "Harmony Bay", "St. Mary's River Fantasy" and "On Georgian Bay", the northern Ontario influences are obvious. This is a quieter album than some of his others and very pleasant.
