A six song EP. From the first ringing notes of "Devil's Paintbrush Road," the listener is struck by her intense immersion in some of the oldest musical traditions on the planet. She reinvigorates folk forms from Eastern Europe, from the high lonesome cadences of bluegrass country, and from the ironic, canny self-mockery of old school music hall and vaudeville. And in the tradition of Canadian singer-songwriters like Leonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell and Neil Young, she's made these musical forms her own. The result is a collection of incandescent songs on the universal themes of love, desire, betrayal and remorse ... a stripped down solo effort that plumbs the depths and scales the heights of emotion with complete, raw honesty. "Tell me if I've risen to grace and my heart is alive ..." User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
