"I love singing for people," says Allison Crowe. that kind of artistic passion seems extremely rare these days." Allison sings with such an intensity of emotion, it's easy to see why she's often quoted as saying 'Why music? Why breathing?'. moves me, or how I want other people to listen to and adore it as much as I do. So sings Jonathan Richman (on Rockin' and Romance).Īnd that tells you something about musician Allison Crowe.Ī modern lover of music, blogger Muruch frames it like this: "There's really no way to convey through mere words how much the music. Vincent Van Gogh "loved life so bad, his paintings had twice the color other paintings had". This girl should be a star by now? good looking-good singer-good guitarist-good song writer-and sounds great what more do they need.(or do they want dum dummys that do what they say? listen and make youre own mind up) I think she sounds great my self but thats just me. The visual art of Spiral matches its aural beauty - with cover paintings by Netherlands-based Tara Thelen, photographs by Canada's Billie Rocha-Woods, and California's Dan Goldwasser, fontage from Brazil’s Billy Argel and graphic design by Florida's Alix Whitmire. (aka Condor) and John MacMillan complete this diverse mix of music made in Corner Brook, Nanaimo, as well as Chilliwack, White Rock, Denman Island and Salt Spring Island, Canada, Vienna, Austria, and Hollywood, USA.

On this new song collection, the bi-coastal Canadian, (she calls Corner Brook, Newfoundland and Nanaimo, British Columbia, home), is joined by ideally-skilled and sympathetic west-coast musicians Billie Rocha-Woods (acoustic guitar, backing vocals), Dave Baird (bass, backing vocals), Laurent Boucher (percussion), Brendan Millbank (cello) and Larry Anschell (electric guitar, and, also, Engineer/Producer at Turtle Studios in White Rock, B.C.) (These composers do not release under CC license, and so these three songs are not included here with Allison's originals.) 2”), and Hunters and Collectors’ Antipodean anthem, “Throw Your Arms Around Me”. Spiral’s mix of light and shadow includes a trio of fresh covers – revisiting music of Annie Lennox (“Why”), Leonard Cohen (“Chelsea Hotel No. Uniquely known not just as one of the most exciting songwriters of a new generation, Crowe is also one of our finest interpreters of popular song. With the live track, “Wake Up”, Crowe, again, renders the personal universal, and the global, human. Raw, natural, emotion is embraced passionately with elegiac beauty and melody in these, and such joy-filled tunes as “Going Home Tonight” and “No Matter the Battle”. Spiral contains these eight new songs from Allison Crowe, ranging from the tender and playful country/roots of “Dearly”, to the upbeat pop of “Double-Edged Swords”, ’cross the loving “Oceans”, and darker terrain of “I Don’t Know” and the hard rocking title track.
