iTunes Review
Singer/songwriter Kathleen Edwards moves beyond roots-rock on her fourth release. Lush production and a full, robust sound give Voyageur a different scope and feel than her previous work, with her usual stripped-down arrangements replaced by layers of organ, tremolo guitars, and thick vocal harmonies. Her songwriting is equally ambitious. There’s palpable weariness in these songs but also a desire for catharsis. The delicate “A Soft Place to Land” and “House Full of Empty Rooms” deal directly with heartbreak, while the music's urgency in “Chameleon/Comedian” and “Going to Hell” contrast the vulnerable vocals. The forlorn “Pink Champagne” features hazy ambient noise, the orchestral “Change the Sheets” builds to a full-blown chorus, and “Sidecar” and “Mint” come closest to the guitar-based Americana she’s best known for. Coproduced by Bon Iver's Justin Vernon, Voyageur does carry some trademarks of his sound (namely the sonic density), yet it’s clearly Edwards’ show.
Customer Reviews
another move in the right direction...
I was so excited to see that Kathleen had a new CD coming out (I've been a fan since 'Back To me'), that I pre-ordered it.
I had read some reviews that her 'new sound' was disappointing. I got worried - did she sell out?
Then I saw her (and the new CD) featured on NPR.org. I streamed the album on my computer - I couldn't have been more happy!
Her songwriting ability is still the same, but the sound (and production) is a little different. Which is fantastic!
All artists need to experiment to evolve, or they become a one-trick pony.
Kathleen Edwards has done it again...
Her most polished and evolved album to date!!!
Kathleen Edwards is one of those incredible artists who is able to elevate the conflicts, emotions and stories of ordinary life to a truly engrossing and meaningful listening experience. Although this is mostly a break-up album, she is able to infuse many of her darker lyrics with a silver lining of hope. The result? An uplifting album that relates to normal people. 'Voyageur' remains simple even through its smart, poetic lyrics and brilliant music.
On a technical side, the soundscape and compositions on this album are probably the most evolved since Kathleen Edwards' debut, 'Failer.' Vocally, she is 100 percent spot on, and sounds even better than she did on her previous three albums.
In the end, its interesting—completely human and delightful. A must buy!
