Fred Eaglesmith is a bit of an odd duck in the country music scene, although fans might grouse that pigeonholing him into one genre isn't fair (see what I did with the birds there?). His 18 or so albums run the gamut of roots music with his latest, Tambourine, drawing on Summer of Love-inspired '60s folk and rock & roll. Eaglesmith tends to push whatever genre he's working in to interesting places, like his dark and muddy 2008 "gospel" album Tinderbox. Though he's never really seen the big time throughout his long career, his relentless touring and endearing live show have built him a devoted following in his native Canada and the U.S. (Stephen Layton)
