About This Item
2016 album from the three time IBMA Female Vocalist of the Year award winner. On North By South, Claire Lynch pays homage to her favorite Canadian songwriters on a set of bluegrass and new acoustic tracks. After her recent marriage to a Canadian, Lynch began to dig into the vast catalog of songs written by Canadian songwriters and found the inspiration for this project. Working with Alison Brown in the producer's chair, she delivers stand out versions of Ron Sexsmith's InchCold Hearted WindInch with Jerry Douglas on dobro, the catchy InchKingdom ComeInch written by Old Man Luedecke featuring Bela Fleck (banjo) and Stuart Duncan (fiddle) and the gorgeous maritime ballad InchMolly MayInch written by Cape Breton's JP Cormier. Lynch also offers thoughtful reinterpretations of songs by Lynn Miles (InchBlack FlowersInch), Dave Francey (InchEmpty TrainInch) and Gordon Lightfoot (InchWorth BelievingInch) and contributes the lighthearted, self-penned InchMiloInch to the project.
