The band resurfaced in 2000 and their latest release came in 2013 with "High Road." The lead-off track, "Good To See You," sounds as bright and fresh as their early work. If you dig it, you'd be doing yourself a favor mining the band's back catalogue for more.

"Good To See You" by The Grapes of Wrath
The Grapes of Wrath (the band) started way back in 1983 as an acoustic-rock outfit from Canada. By 1987 they broke through (in Canada, that is) with the release of "Treehouse," a record produced by Canadian rock legend Tom Cochrane. The band gained a little traction in the US on shows like MTV's 120 Minutes, but never had charting singles. In my book, they could have been another R.E.M. or Crowded House, but never got that lucky break. By 1992 they split up.
