  LeE HARVey OsMOND is the brainchild of Tom Wilson, from Canada's supergroup Blackie & the Rodeo Kings. Tom brought together an eclectic group
                          of friends, a few Cowboy Junkies, and some Skydiggers, to develop a new sound they christened acid folk. With hypnotic rhythms
                          and a lot of groove the group of friends now known as LeE HARVeY OsMOND, created a sound that comes creeping out of the
                          Northern woods and is oozing across the Great Lakes into the South, following the same path The Band did forty years before.
