‘Waves of Desire’ from Canadian Singer/Songwriter Jerry Leger is the perfect follow-up to his previous studio effort, ‘Donlands’.

Produced by Mark Howard (known for his work for such as Lucinda Williams, Bob Dylan, and Tom Waits), it is a record full of vulnerability, space and atmosphere. ‘Waves of Desire’ expands on this but with more pop sensibilities and textures.
 
"During the sessions, I was calling it my “Pure Pop for Jerry People” record—a nod to Nick Lowe's Pure Pop for Now People. Some of the “pure pop” I heard at a young age included The Everly Brothers, The Drifters, Roy Orbison, The Zombies, and my first obsession—The Beatles"
One of the most respected singer-songwriters around, Ron Sexsmith says, ‘Leger has that spark in him that all the great songwriters have. He’s the real deal.’
