If you've loved Canadian music for the last twenty years of your life, you've probably heard him sing to you, either keeping the Broken Social Scene in line with nothing more than a stomping foot and an acoustic guitar. Jason Collett is back with a politically charged body of work along with the ultimate collection of songs from his illustrious career as a music force. His signature lush melodies depict the social turmoil of today’s world woes but are equally as uplifting and beautiful as they are informative.

The first single – and Australian exclusive – is entitled ‘You’re Not The One And Only Lonely One’. It is a pulsating, pounding track that sees Collett embrace more of a rock signature whilst holding onto his poignant lyrics of love and loss. Politically charged as always, Collett is a force to be reckoned with here, in a melodically menacing way.

Collett’s new album ‘Reckon’ is released in September and comes with a specially selected collection of the best songs from across Collett’s illustrious career. ‘Reckon’ definitely is a must have for all folk/pop fans.

The new album ‘Reckon’ plus bonus album ‘Essential Cuts’ is out September 21
