WUMB

Kacy Anderson and Clayton Linthicum are cousins whose music takes inspiration from country and the U.K. folk sound. In 2009, they realised they had a shared interest in music and started playing shows in their rural community in Saskatchewan before moving on to folk clubs and festivals. They released their first album in 2013 called The Day Is Past and Gone.They've gone on to put out three more albums, one of which was produced by Jeff Tweedy of Wilco.

The duo went straight from touring Western Canada to Tweedy's Loft in Chicago to record their fourth album Carrying On over the course of four days. "Mom And Dad's Waltz #2" is about the fate of a "child passed around for years and years" between two parents who are struggling. "In A Time Of Doubt" suggests that Julia Jacklin is going through a 70's country moment with a cheerful guitar that disguises Anderson's story of a manipulative relationship. Kacy & Clayton continue to carry on their folk sound with this album.
