Vancouver’s Petunia & The Vipers’ genre- transcendental sound is an eclectic and engrossing bar room mix of style and innovation. As described by Saving Country Music, “Petunia & The Vipers are one of these creative generators and innovators, and their music and moxy can be found defining the cutting edge of what is considered creative in country and roots today, while still keeping alive what made country music great in the past.”
Inspired by the sting of unreciprocated love, latest single, “Loved in Vain,” is a unique and swaggered blend of yodel, folk, western and bold Latin horns, fitting of a sun-soaked cantina with a psychedelic-infused patronage.
I played “Loved in Vain” for the first time down there to a crowd of 200 Argentines. The audience started clapping a latin rhythm in time after about three seconds! I wasn’t aware of it at the time, but I had written a song that galloped along in traditional Argentine folk time. I had written a Chacarera. The applause after the song was stupendous. I felt like finally, I had found a home for this song. – Petunia & The Vipers
