released April 21, 2023 Dead Bob is the solo incarnation of John Wright, drummer from long time and apparently legendary but now retired Punk rock band No Means No. Life Like, a NMN cover actually, is the first album John has released on his own. Though primarily written and performed by John he can not take all the credit having engaged the help of several friends to get this thing done. Recorded and Produced by John in the wilds of British Columbia, this album's material spans several decades and there is lots more in the archives. As might be expected the songs roll out cohesively but defy the cookie cutters and pigeon holes hence "Genre" is a tough one to convey but one thing that is not unclear is it is not to be listened to quietly! Play loud and enjoy! All songs written and performed by John Wright with the exception of... Just Breathe - Written by Byron Slack and John Wright, extra guitars by Byron too. White Stone Eyes - Written by Robert Wright and John Wright Like LIke - Written by Robert Wright and John Wright with additional lead and backing vocals by Selina Martin No Tomorrows - Additional Bass guitar by Byron Slack, acoustic rhythm guitar by Aidan Wright and trumpets by Kristy Lee Audette That was too Easy - Written by Ford Pier and John Wright One of You - Additional backing vox, Byron Slack and Kristy Lee Audette Recorded and Produced by John Wright Mastered by Jacob Krauss Graphic art by Gisele Grignet Original cover art by John Wright Original painting by PS Krebs (hard copy) Pro Gear - Scott Henderson, Tom Holliston, Cecil English, Al Stepaniuk, Craig Vishek, Aidan Wright Many Thanks to- Patti Torgersen and Craig Bougie, Paddy Duddy, Dave Clark, Jacob Krauss, Naslund Brousseau, and Wendy!
