In an age where we know everything about everyone, Cass McCombs remains wilfully elusive. Here’s what we do know about the American singer-songwriter: he’s a bit of a nomad, once upon a time no stranger to sleeping in cars and campsites across the US. He’s worked all kinds of jobs: truck driver, stable boy, projectionist, painter, envelope-licker. And his music is equally nomadic, taking in everything from children’s songs to last year’s surprise release of unreleased material from the turn of the millennium.
