USA Today proclaims that “(Cross Canadian Ragweed) is one of the better-kept secrets around.” But not a secret for much longer, as their seventh studio album, Happiness and All The Other Things, amply proves. The 12-track opus opens with a one/two punch/kiss combo that sets the band’s wide parameters: The fiercely rocking road tale “51 Pieces” followed by a sweet taste of the Texas Hill Country springtime on “Bluebonnets,” whose sparse and lovely arrangement features harmonium by Joe Hardy (the star recording engineer who mixed the album) and dobro by noted musician and producer Lloyd Maines (also the father of Dixie Chick Natalie Maines). And then it only gets better.

They don't compromise. They play, and live, with genuine abandon and wouldn’t have it any other way. "Man, there were never any other options but to stay together and play music," says frontman and songwriter Cody Canada. "We've always wanted to d...More about The Valarium
