The Talbot Trail Boys
And speaking of questions, whatever happened to those Talbot Trail Boys?
Henry Adam Svec, who works as a communication arts professor at the University of Waterloo during daylight hours, is on it.
Henry Adam Svec investigates the fate of the fictional alt-country band Talbot Trail Boys whose forgotten music is discovered in a yard sale somewhere near St. Thomas in a “rural noir” podcast. (Contributed) jpg ST apsmc
Blenheim-born Henry has created a six-part podcast titled Southwesto Gothic: The Case of the Talbot Trail Boys that follows a folklorist and song collector played by Henry himself who finds out about an unknown band’s music at a yard sale near St. Thomas and sets off to uncover their story.
(Ironically enough, real-life Henry doesn’t usually go yard-saling himself nor has he ever heard about something called The Talbot Trail of Yard Sales.)
This has not loaded yet; however, your article continues below.

This has not loaded yet; however, your article continues below.(In an interview with me Henry mentioned he drew inspiration for his work on “rural noir” fiction partly from his time spent working in Mississippi where Southern Gothic influences are deeply rooted in literature and music.)
(Accordingly its storytelling tradition helped Henry view Southwestern Ontario through fresh perspectives )
“Upon returning back to Canada I experienced this place again with newfound appreciation.. I really wanted to write about this region.”
“I finally found myself inspired enough.”
To bring out full authenticity , they recorded podcasts during summer capturing sounds like cicadas buzzing crickets chirping among other background noises associated with nature.
In regards ; the Talbot Trail Boys project explores how an unnoticed band could potentially release one of Canada’s finest albums only never seen again afterwards.
(Ironically many independent musicians lack mainstream success despite having immense talent) “So witnessing these lost artists inspired me creatively regarding possibilities existing within forgotten bands hailing from here making unforgettable tracks.”
