Linda Holtom

Linda Holtom As I'm from Vancouver, I've long been familiar with your lovely voice, and as a member of the Leonard Cohen files, I heard your version of Hallelujah for the first time at that site. A wonderful rendition. Love your work...

Allison Crowe "Gorgeous" music: Allison Crowe & Co. "Spiral"


“Her voice will just send shivers down your spine, and just rip your soul
out, and make you happy to be alive. The new track from Allison Crowe, Going
Home Tonight…” And so Boston-based media maven C.C. Chapman introduces his
podcast audience to this new creation:
http://www....allisoncrowe.com/GoingHomeTonightAllisonCroweprealbumversion.mp3
(pre-album version)


Allison Crowe, known for her singularly amazing, often live, performances and
her free, independent, spirit, is currently wrapping up the recording of twelve
songs to be released as “Spiral”, her seventh CD/album in seven
years.


Until now, Crowe’s much-loved recordings have been, essentially, solo affairs
– her own voice, piano, and guitar accompanied by rare touches of bass and
percussion (and, once, on her Secrets album, accordion, and Uillean
pipes).


With songs in her repertoire calling for a broader palette, on
“Spiral”, the bicoastal Canadian musician comes together, from
Newfoundland to British Columbia, with her touring band: Billie Woods, guitar
and bgs (backing vocals); Dave Baird, bass and bgs; and Laurent Boucher on
percussion. Turtle Recording studio’s main man, Larry Anschell, engineers
the White Rock, B.C. studio sessions, and joins in on electric guitar.


Orchestrating, arranging, and producing the album is Los Angeles-based film
composer, Kayla Schmah, an artist who’s followed her own path for a decade, and
today works in Hollywood with Emmy-award winning composer Edward Shearmur while
independently orchestrating and composing on various projects.


Alan Pedder, Editor/Publisher of UK magazine, Wears the Trousers,
notes: “The culmination of a
decade-long friendship, Schmah is bringing to the album the lush orchestration
that Crowe has been seeking since penning some of these songs during a 2007-08
creative spurt that saw her develop two albums’ worth of material. Some of those
songs ended up on 2008’s Little Light, without orchestration, and some
will make it onto Spiral alongside newer songs and, as is always the
case with Allison, a selection of covers. This unfinished version of ‘Going Home
Tonight’, a Crowe original, is a swelling, emotional ballad cloaked in strings
that are rich enough to carry and accentuate the voice.”


The strings, celeste, tympani and
more on this pre-album version debuted on the eclectic US arts and entertainment
blog, Muruch, which has adopted Crowe as musical mascot, commenting:
“Allison’s voice and piano
playing are as beautiful as ever.” Allan Showalter, host and curator of 1
Heck of a Guy, the web’s snappiest Leonard-Cohen related blog, calls
Going Home Tonight “Gorgeous”. That’s qualified by fellow American,
multi-blogger and video game
programmer, Jeff
Taylor, who labels it: “Absolutely gorgeous”. Jessica Kuijer of France’s CTN
Music, says: “I LOVE THIS new song!!!”. Canadian merch monkey, Reena
Kudhail, exclaims: “That's a bloody fantastic song.”


A direct video for “Going Home Tonight”, filmed on Salt Spring Island,
B.C., (where Allison Crowe and Kayla Schmah first met, at the turn of the
century), is on YouTube @:

C.C. Chapman winds up his Accident Hash intro: “If you ever, ever,
ever, ever, EVER, get a chance to see her live, please do. Her CDs do not do
this woman justice. Her performance, her voice, her everything…


Before the excitement of “Spiral” is released, Allison Crowe performs
live – presenting her Tidings concert series from the Pacific to the
Atlantic.

Allison Crowe On the road to creating a new album, musician/singer-songwriter Allison Crowe teams up with a longtime friend in orchestrator, arranger and producer Kayla Schmah.

Crowe, at home in, both, Nanaimo, British Columbia and Corner Brook, Newfoundland, (on Canada's Pacific and Atlantic coasts), and L.A.-based film composer Sch...mah first met, a decade ago, on Salt Spring Island, BC (where, it happens, this video was shot).

The pair are making art together today. "Oh, do not ask, 'What is it?' Let us go and make our visit." Here be a pre-album version of "Going Home Tonight", a song on Crowe's upcoming CD, "Spiral".

The short answer, Jeff, is not soon enough!

hehe

This album and all it entails, helps explain why I am so occupied and scrambling to keep up with things online+... Ver mais

At this point, we're less than two weeks away from Allison having wrapped up her recording. Then, Kayla's orchestration and all to those songs that call for strings+ happens, and, then, we shall have "Spiral". We'd been thinking it'd be a November or December release, but, considering how magical things are happening, we're not pegging any worldly time to it. It'll be done when it is, and that's likely to be late '09 or very early 2010.

This pre-album version of Going Home Tonight is for you, me, and all of us who can't wait 'til the album is complete!

no worries about spelling, Pablo! your English is terrific! I wish I could communicate as well in Spanish!

I am Adrian, and serve as manager to Allison - who is travelling across Canada this weekend, to wrap up recording of her new album/CD, and then starting a new concert tour

I can assure you that Allison will read your words - when she checks in, and, I'll make sure, too, to let her know!... Ver mais

ciao, Ad
