Doreen Kostynuik - I Wish You Rainbows
Posted on February 17, 2006 by canonical
Doreen bears it all on this solo journey. While there are some standard (original) folk and bluegrass songs, the real interesting parts are on the spoken-word tracks. On these songs she opens up on a personal level which at first made me feel uncomfortable, but over time became bearable owing to the poetic nature of its telling. There is an especially interesting self-revelation recorded over herself singing and playing the guitar. The album was recorded in Ottawa with no indication of the year.
