Great song from a great singer songwriter. Kathleen Edwards is one of Canada’s finest and is developing a following around the world. This song was recorded live for the CBC during a private show for CBC3. It doesn’t get much better than this does it.

It has surely been a dry spell for new releases by Canadian artists. I skipped last weeks post due to nothing to post on and almost decided to do the same this week. Fortunately, songstress Kathleen Edwards released a single anticipating her Mid-January release of her album “Voyageur”, As I normally don’t post on singles, I thought this would be an opportunity to, first, have some continuity in my posting, and second do a 2fer. Consider this to both be an entry on new music and a Canadian Classic post as well. Ottawa born Edwards has been recording since 1999, and has released 4 albums and 3 EPs since then. Her work has recently been featured in the movie “Elizabethtown” and she has played with such notables as Bryan Adams, Jim Cuddy and the Arkells. She is a two-time nominee for Canada’s Juno Awards. The video off her new album is titled “Change the Sheets” and the classic video is “I Make The Dough, You Get The Glory”. The second song is a popular Canadian hockey related tune, and features NHL greats Marty McSorley and Paul Coffey, among others.
