  • Colter Wall performs 'Codeine Dream' for First Play Live
    SUBSCRIBE for new CBC MUSIC videos: bit.ly/cbcmusicYT
    The praise preceding 21-year-old folk/country singer Colter Wall is immense. Steve Earle says Colter Wall is "the best young singer-songwriter I've seen in 20 years." Rick Rubin is also piling compliments on the young singer from Swift Current, Saskatchewan.
    See the young singer's talent for yourself in this CBC Music session. Wall says that most of the songs on his new, self-titled album are autobiographical. With themes that include a drunken brush with the RCMP, a song titled "Codeine Dream" plus a murder ballad, one certainly hopes that at least the third in that list is fictional. It's hard to believe that Wall is as young as he is when you first feel his baritone rumble into your ears - like a truck cruising the gravel back roads of rural Saskatchewan. The gravity in his voice matches the authenticity of his lyrics.
    You may have heard this name before, though: Wall's father is Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall. One can't help but wonder about the father-son relationship after listening to the wayward tale of "Thirteen Silver Dollars." But who knows where the young Wall gets his inspiration? The important thing is that he has a lot of it, as well as prodigious talent, creativity and that beautiful baritone.

      I recorded myself playing this note for note 5 times. I came in at 2min 56 to 58 seconds. He is at 3.33. It is tough to play it that slow, but he's the pro.

    My son just introduced me to Colter Wall. I'm not usually a fan of country and western music, but I love Colter Wall's performance. Love his guitar playing. Find his voice hypnotic. Just love a number of his songs I've heard and have to play them over and over. He is a major major talent! Thank you Colter Wall!

    Prayin' on the north wind
    Lead me to my door
    Thumbing through my green backs
    Swearin' I made more
    Some cruel nightly cycle
    Leaves me cryin' on a motel floor
    But I don't cry for you anymore
    For many a dark hour
    I look up to the sky
    Many unkind thoughts are laid
    Upon my hazy eyes
    Sometimes I get to thinkin'
    Why wait around to die
    But I don't think of you
    So I get by
    Every day it seems
    My whole damn life's just a codeine dream
    But I don't dream of you anymore
    The sun is gone away now
    Green grass turns to brown
    Every December gets a little bit harder
    Lay that bottle down
    It's more than just the weather
    That plagues this prairie town
    But I won't be seeing you
    When I come 'round
    Every day it seems
    My whole damn life's just a codeine dream
    But I don't dream of you anymore
