100% Newfoundlander (V) A Piece Of The Rock (V) Last Of The Reasons Ol' Newfoundland The Place We Come From (V) Traveled In Time (V) Turn This Ship Around (V) Who's Gonna Farm Your Oil (V) Biographical Notes Roustabout is made up of three LaScie lads: Owen Burton, Rob Starkes and Lorne Rideout. Although all were born in different communities (Owen on the Horse Islands, Rob in Nipper's Harbor, and Lorne in Tilt Cove) they all call LaScie home. The original Roustabout was formed several years ago when Owen came down off his "rockin' years" and began to take a shine to more traditional music. Since that time, Roustabout has gone from seven — as a result of retirements and work commitments — to the present three members. Owen's roots are with the guitar, but he also plays bass and mandolin, and is the lead vocalist for the group; Lorne plays harmonica and button accordion; and Rob contributes with some rhythm guitar, a bit of percussion (ugly stick) and sings the occasional tune. Rob writes most of the band's material, although Lorne and Owen have been known to chip in every now and again. |
