Description
When you see April Verch perform, the first thing that strikes you is the pure energy that infuses her fiddle playing and step dancing. When you listen to TAKE ME BACK, though, what draws you in are more subtle things her confident, winsome singing, the finely detailed elegance of her fiddle phrasing, and the depth of a repertoire that ranges through material from Americana mainstays Buddy and Julie Miller to simple country songs, from rollicking tunes from her native Ottawa Valley to sparkling original instrumentals." With roots music master Dirk Powell as producer, and recorded with local musicians at his Louisiana studio, TAKE ME BACK builds on the strengths of April's previous album, "From Where I Stand", with a new emphasis on songs and arrangements with broad, yet roots-leaning appeal. With backing from Powell, Marc Bru, pianist Benoit Legault, members of the Red Stick Ramblers and other colleagues of the producer, April offers convincing proof that her supple, inventive fiddling is more powerful than ever. And she delivers songs of intense, often dark emotion with an expressive vocal depth that belies not only the short time that's passed since she began singing, but also her age. Indeed, whether you're a long-time fan of or a newcomer to April Verch's music, these are performances that will come as a revelation. Tracks: Take Me Back / Grand Slaque / All In A Night / Monarch / I Still Cry / Eclipse / Bride Of Jesus / Loggers In The Short Grass / Tennessee Wagoner / Cruel Moon / Seven Years / Tom, Brad & Alice / Wings To Fly / This Ottawa Valley Of Mine. Also available: FROM WHERE I STAND (ROUCD7046), VERCHUOSITY (ROUCD7019).
