Hippie folk psych band Perth County Conspiracy was a folk music group, based in Stratford, Ontario, Canada. It was formed in 1969 and was active until at least 1977. They lived together as a commune, similar to the Grateful Dead. The music is characterised by its message-oriented lyrics and unconventional arrangements. The 1970 self-titled album features Shakespearian dialogue and audio collage elements mixed with folk and folk rock music that might place it in the genre of psych folk. Over its career PCC(DNE) recorded several albums of material including at least two on the Columbia label. Kanada, from 1975, is the fifth release of the band.
