Scenic Route to Alaska are an indie folk band from Canada The three piece recently released their fourth studio album, Long Walk Home, and they are set to play at de Gudde Wellen on Wednesday. The band have steadily built up their following over the years and drummer Shea Connor took some time to tell Sam Steen about the band and the latest record.

While not widely known in Europe, Scenic Route To Alaska have been playing together for years. They released their self-titled debut album back in 2011 but have known each other much longer than that. “We all grew up together in Edmonton Alberta in Canada and I’ve known Trev and Murray for ten year and they’ve known each other since they were five years old”, said Shea, “basically, simultaneously we all started playing music around twelve years old and we started up an R’n’B cover band together and played in that for about ten years before we decided to do our own thing.”
