Heather Nova -《茉莉花》(The Jasmine Flower)

姓名：Heather Nova
籍贯：百慕大

2008 album from the Bermudan songstress. 'I played around a lot over the last 2 years with different sounds and ideas, but in the end I decided I wanted to make my most stark record to date, so I recorded the songs with just me and my guitar. Afterwards we added a string quartet to a few tracks.I have a home studio here in Bermuda, but when I was ready to put down the tracks, the whole thing started breaking down first the mixing desk then the computer itself died. I was very 'in the zone' to record and didn't want to wait what could be weeks for all new gear to arrive, so I decided it was a lesson in simplicity. I realized I could still record and mix the album on my solar powered laptop. So there you have it that's all you need to make a great sounding album. Sun and songs. I think the songs must be good, because most of them make me feel pretty uncomfortable, which is a sign that I have plumbed the depths and dug for truth, no matter how unsettling.' - Heather Nova. Sony. 2008.
整张专辑都非常好听。特别推荐Ride和Out On A Limb。

Ride
Beautiful Storm
Maybe tomorrow
Out on a limb
Every soldier is a mother's son
Out in New Mexico
looking for the light
Hollow
If I should die
Say something
Follow me in grace
Always Christmas
