His last album 2009’s Wooden Arm was nominated for the Canadian Polaris Music Prize, a prestigious music award annually given to the best full-length Canadian album based on artistic merit, regardless of genre, sales, or record label.
His 4th studio album, The Adventures In Your Own Backyard, was released in May and is equally cinematic.
