Kathleen Edwards, "Voyageur" Between a divorce (from guitarist Colin Cripps) and a new relationship (with Justin Vernon, aka Bon Iver, who co-produces this 10-song set), Canadian singer-songwriter Kathleen Edwards hasn't been wanting for drama between her second and third albums. "Voyageur" chronicles the emotional journey with confessional pathos and new ambient touches provided by Vernon, from heart-wringing paeans such as "Going to Hell," "Empty Threat" and "Change the Seats" to the redemptive optimism of the airy "A Soft Place to Land." Guests such as Norah Jones, Francis & the Lights and John Roderick flesh things out even further, making "Voyageur" a trip well worth taking. Rating: 3.5 out of 5 Gary Graff Press & Guide |
