CBC darling (Definitely Not The Opera gave him a boost with its Big Break contest) and proud Prince Edward Islander Nathan Wiley could be the second coming of Tom Waits.
On his phenomenal first record, Wiley shows what happens to a lonesome cowboy when he's stranded Down East, far away from the wide open plains: he drinks some hooch, adapts chameleon-like to his surroundings and becomes a dark and mysterious surfer-pirate-renegade hybrid.
Perhaps this is the definition of pirate music -- hollow and lonely, desperate for love and oozing emotion, bourbon and soot.
