Tracks list

       Myriad, notable blues, folk and avant-rock torch carriers engage Suzanne
Langille’s oneiric nocturnes - usually heard accompanied by non pareil
guitarist Loren Mazzacane Connors - across an in-depth and enchanting 2xCD
highlighting her songs’ range and timeless appeal.

An overdue spotlight is shone on Langille’s solo work with this utterly
absorbing set of covers, reworks and originals sifted from her more than 30
years of recordings, more often made with life and creative partner Loren
Connors. Whilst her work is understandably usually considered in relief of her
work with Connors, it patently holds to the light here within others’
hands and voices, from the likes of Kim Gordon & Bill Nace’s mean
imitation on ‘Strong & Foolish Heart’, to Heather Leigh’s
channelling of her ghostly country figure in ‘Old John’, to Jim
O’Rourke’s creaking, warbling reset of ‘End of My
Days’, along with original works by Suzanne & Loren that remind to the
real thing in the spectral jazz-blues shimmer of a ‘Dream Ballad’
evoking comparison with Scott Walker.

Suzanne & Loren also light up other gems on board, proving a smoky mutability in
free jazz quartet with Daniel Carter & William Hooker on ‘I Wish I
Didn’t Dream’, and the martial tension of ‘It Will Only
Continue’, whilst Byron Coley fills her role as narrator to the noir of
‘Nothing at All’. There is a clear highlight registered with Sarah
Davachi & Sean McCann’s quivering slow music sublimation of ‘Return
to the Waterfall’, and likewise Laura Ortman connects with the widescreen
yet intimate American romance of Suzanne’s work most dearly in the
decelerated drone folk of ‘Grip My Hand’, and it resonates
similarly with Alison Farrell, another US folk outlier who imbues her own soul
on ‘Millie’s Not Afraid’.
