Take A Dive by The Dust Collectors: Review

Canadian folk rock band The Dust Collectors charm their way into their melodic country tale in “Take A Dive.” Filled with vibrant acoustic rhythms and a vocal storytelling element, the song speaks soothingly with strumming chords that will send you a narrative worth hearing out from.

The expedition onto the open country is long and hard, it is best to have companions by your side to make the journey painless and enjoyable. But while you’re at it, some tunes will help you guide the way, and out comes the bass-heavy aroma of folk roots in “Take A Dive.” The band takes on a delightful upbeat motion to ensure the music stays real and complete. As more instruments surrounded the melody, along came a symphonic arrangement from the violins that adds a nice touch of drama to the country scene. It makes you wonder about the greatness of Canada and how that part of the world rejoices in the flow of the country’s allure. Soft country bits are always a joy to hear as long you have a folk tale to chant and feet stomping to get that tempo running. So with a joyful number from The Dust Collectors, that moment in time should feel immensely memorable.

There are notable moments in history from Irish immigrants in the 1920s from America who earned their income by engaging in fixing boxing matches and prize fighting through the mob. Luke Giblin who plays lead vocals, rhythm guitar, and mandolin for the band was inspired through this part of history to create the meaning behind the song “Take A Dive”.
