Wreckless Daughter ***1/2 (out of possible 4!)
“…delightful and continually surprising…”
Patrick Langston, Ottawa Citizen
“…a brilliant fusion of folk and jazz combined with emotionally searing lyrics.”
Denis Armstong, The Ottawa Sun
This new collection of 11 songs touches universal themes like love, habitat and human conflict. On the tender title track, ‘wreckless daughter’, Christine’s heart breaks a little. When she mends it, uplifting songs like ‘chickadeesong’ dot the recording. Creating a distinctly indie-folk sound, Dave Draves (Kathleen Edwards, Jim Bryson, Melwood Cutlery) co-produced the CD. Draves adds keyboards to the mix of acoustic, electric & slide guitars, bass, harmony vocals and percussion. Go to discs to hear samples and download free MP3’s from previous releases.
