Description
Available for the first time on vinyl, Julie Doiron And The Wooden Stars is Doirons most critically acclaimed album, going so far as to win the 2000 Juno Award (the Canadian equivalent to the Grammy) for Best Independently Released Album Of The Year.
Recorded and released in 1999 by Tree Records and Sappy Records (reissued by Jagjaguwar in 2002), the album finds Ottawa-based quartet The Wooden Stars playing Doirons back-up band, helping her step out of the solitary, introspective robe shed been wearing and venture into a more urgent and upbeat albeit still fundamentally Spartan direction.
Combining elements of rock and jazz a la Joni Mitchells early 70s work, Julie And The Wooden Stars somehow translated the coldness of the Canadian winter into one of the warmest and most tender records to be produced in the Eastern province in years.
Available on vinyl for the first time.
Includes digital download of the entire album.
