Expect plenty of holiday cheer, laced with overtones of Leonard CohenLeonard Cohen, Joni Mitchell, The Beatles, jazz and Broadway, as Canada’s popular bicoastal singer-songwriter Allison Crowe returns to the Laurie Beechman Theater ( http://www.westbankcafe.
com/theater ) for a holiday « Tidings » performance on Sunday, December 7 at 8:00 p.m. All concert proceeds to the EveryDay Angels Foundation ( http://www.edaf.org ). Come Winter, EDAF volunteers deliver warm clothes and blankets to the homeless. In other seasons, they clean up beaches, and perform a range of community service.
« Music for the season and all time. » Tidings stirs together traditional Christmas carols and holiday favourites with an organic blend of rock, jazz, folk, gospel and soul. « The Yuletide find of the year, » says The Record. « Be prepared to be amazed, » chimes ChristmasReviews.com
« Ever wonder what it would have been like to listen to a gifted singer/songwriter from Saskatchewan in a small, intimate hall before she became Joni Mitchell? Don’t fret the missed opportunity. There’s no need to turn back the clock. Check out Allison Crowe. » ~ Robert Reid, The Record (Canada)
« Get a piece of paper and write Tori Amos in the top left hand corner. Then write Patti Smith top right, followed by Stevie Nicks and Leonard Cohen (stay with me) in the bottom two positions. Then draw diagonal lines from their names to the centre, forming a big symmetrical cross. Here is where you will find Allison Crowe’s music. »~ The Scene (Australia)
« Allison Crowe has a voice to fall in love with. She is from Vancouver Island in Canada, descended from Scottish, Irish and Manx stock. She’s exactly the sort of artist who can make serious headway on her own label and that’s just what she’s doing. » ~ Record of the Day (UK)
« Treat yourself to one of the mightiest talents on the singer-songwriter scene today. » ~ Bob Muller, JoniMitchell.com (USA)
« Her version of ‘I Never Loved a Man (The Way I Love You)’ would give Aretha Franklin goose-bumps. » ~ Robert Moyes, Boulevard (Canada)
« The most honest, heartfelt, and directly intimate concert in my entire life. » ~ Ross Hocker, WGTE/NPR Radio (USA)
Admission is by way of $10 donation to EDAF + $15 food and/or beverage minimum
