Search - Jackie Leven :: Shining Brother Shining Sister (Bonus Dvd)

Originally Recorded in 2003 and never released in the US. On "Shining Brother Shining Sister", the known and loved values of Jackie Leven's very best previous work have deepened further, but undertones of rockabilly, jazz, hip hop and waltz help make these recordings perhaps his strongest work to date. A new kind of energy and strength of arrangement suffuse all eleven tracks - from the short horror story narrated by American singer David Thomas, via other poetic spoken-word contributions from Ron Sexsmith and American poet Robert Bly, an album of immense artistic confidence shows a unique writer at the height of his creative power. Think a Scottish Nick Cave mixed with a heavy amount of booze, intellect, and massive musical talent and you have Jackie Leven. It?s time for America to discover this gem of an artist!
