Larry Re Releases "The Shortest Day of The Year" (Click to listen or download)

Larry has re released the popular "Shortest Day Of the Year". Larrry wrote this song a couple of years ago, and it's had good response from audiences across Western Canada. While the song is loosly autobiographical, it is a scenario that is played out in ranch houses. Winter hits, and the work doesn't quit, it just gets a little tougher. The song was recorded in 2008 at Riverbend Sound in St. Louis, produced by Larry Krause and Dave Sinclair. Background instrumentals by Garry Larson, Dave Sinclair and George Pistun, with Larry Krause doing back up vocals.

Larry Delaney Reviews Northern Range from the "Country Music News"

Singer/Songwriter Larry Krause from Christopher Lake , SK., is an avowed disciple of the music of Canadian Country Hall of Farmer, Ian Tyson... he sounds not all that unlike Tyson, he writes songs about the same thing that Tyson has been writing about since entering his Cowboyography era, and he traditionally includes a Tyson song in his own albums. This time around it's a tasty version of of the Ian Tyson ballad My Own Heart's Delight. Larry Krause's own compositions on Northern Range , include tunes like Cowboy's Wish, Year's Flyin' By, Fallin', Footprints in the Moss, Shortest Day of the Year and Nothing Left to Do; all done in a western folklore style, and all leaving you wishing there were more to listen to. Krause also shows a rich musical heritage. In addition to the Ian Tyson tune, he also covers a Stattler Brothers tune, There Is You, taken from their 1983 Lp “Today”, and he ventures into Canadian classic territory covering a Wilf Ingersoll rodeo tune Silver Buckles (a top 30 hit in 1979 for Ingersoll); and also brings back fond memories with a solid version of the fun tune Herschel's Hemi Half Ton, a top 40 hit for Jimmy Arthur Ordge back in 1976.

Northern Range was recorded at Riverbend Sound Studio in St. Louis , SK. and features session work by an assembly of veteran pickers out of the Saskatchewan country talent pool.
