They lost a studio, a producer, an engineer, a booking agent, two guitars, two day jobs and three significant others, yet somehow they managed to make an album. The band was just about the only thing that didn’t fall apart over the year Jacob Two-Two was independently financing, recording and producing The Elastic Heart of Youth, a full-length follow-up to their wildly successful debut EP Well, Well. Perhaps not surprisingly, The Elastic Heart of Youth could be taken as a collection of musical-therapy dialogues between the band’s three songwriting vocalists around the theme of emotional extremes experienced by an unguarded heart. Thoughtful lyrics, sweet voices, a warm organic sound, and a down-to-earth stage presence are all hallmarks of the Jacob Two-Two experience that will be in full effect at their Barrymore’s CD release on July 2. Since 1999, this pop-rock band with a jazzy side and a song about dandelions has been making waves nationally, first for receiving a blessing from the late Mordecai Richler to use the name of his character Jacob Two-Two, and then for their music - garnering radio play on campus and community stations and national press attention, as well as praise from Canadian musical heroes like Garnet Rogers and Willie P. Bennett. With their lives now revolving around the band, they're now breaking out of their Eastern Ontario stomping grounds and doing the Great Canadian Road Trip in support of the album.
