Greg Keelor & Jimmy Bowskill's Matinee To-day Is Out Now
November 13, 2026
Greg Keelor and Jimmy Bowskill’s collaborative album Matinee To-day is out now, along with the new video for “Willie’s Diamond Joe,” the classic Canadian folk-blues song by the late Willie P. Bennett.
“Greg and I connected on our love for Willie P. Bennett’s album ‘Trying To Start Out Clean’, which is a masterpiece. When we first sang ‘Willie’s Diamond Joe’ together the chorus harmony felt so good. It was naturally the first song choice for this album.” — Jim Bowskill
Produced by Keelor, Bowskill and James McKenty at Lost Cause, Greg’s farmhouse studio in the Ontario countryside, the album finds the two trading vocals across timeless country and folk songs by Willie P. Bennett, Bob Dylan, Gene Clark, Townes Van Zandt and Bruce Cockburn, traditional ballads, and two Keelor originals.
