Allison Crowe and Band - Live on Tour
On Easter Sunday 2016 the âHeirs + Grievancesâ
Tour of Allison Crowe and Band hopped into Radio
Koper in Slovenia as part of a visit hatched by the
countryâs brilliant arts patron and cultural
liaison Milka Smid-OâReilly. The quartet chatted
with radio host Drago Mislej aka Mef and
musician/translator Matej Krajnc (of popular
Maribo-based group SuĆŸnji SendviÄev) and performed
four songs live-on-air before RKâs in-studio
audience.
Canadaâs Allison Crowe uniquely inhabits the world
of song â continually adding breadth and depth to a
richly peerless repertoire for piano, vocals,
guitar, fiddle and bodhran. Croweâs âsupernaturally
agile and exquisite voiceâ, (as it's distilled by
Muruch), is mated ideally with her sublime
international touring band: Céline Greb aka Lin Lin
(cello, vocals); Sarah White (mandolin, guitar,
vocals); and Dave Baird (bass). The groupâs
gorgeously thrilling hybrid of Canadiana, Celtic,
jazz, roots, folk, soul and original rock bridges
vital originals with fresh interpretations of
classics by such artists as Leonard Cohen and Annie
Lennox.
The freshness and range of musical ideas and
expression heard in each performance attests to the
sagacity of Allan Showalter, eminence grise of âCohencentric:
Leonard Cohen Consideredâ blog, in his
observation: âOnce you've heard one Allison Crowe
song, You've heard one Allison Crowe song.â
Here's a traditional song, "Tarry Trousers",
out of TNL's "Newfoundland Vinyl"
hit show, with Allison, Sarah and Céline
harmonizing Catch four songs from Allison Crowe and
Band, (plus a preceding full set by Matej Krajnc &
SuĆŸnji SendviÄev), on the RK Easter show â âOKROG
