About this product

I wrote the album in a tiny apartment, at a time when everything felt big and overwhelming, says poet and songwriter Jenny Berkel about her new album, InchThese Are the Sounds Left From LeavingInch. She was living in a brownstone walk-up full of radiant light and the ever-present soundscape of a leaky bath faucet. It was a sudden move at the time - a spontaneous departure from touring, bustling city life, being many things to many people-that landed Jenny in a space of self-imposed stillness. InchThe songs themselves are a study of proximity, bringing big fears into small spaces,Inch says Jenny, reflecting on the album. InchThey're intimate examinations of a world that often overwhelms.Inch The album features contributions from critically acclaimed folk duo Kacy & Clayton, and string arrangements by Colin Nealis (Andy Shauf) - the record was co-produced by Jenny alongside Dan Edmonds and Ryan Boldt (The Deep Dark Woods). Warm and dark, soft with stabs of madness, InchThese Are the Sounds Left From LeavingInch is a cohesive collection of spare songs that bloom lushly with detail. Whether you're reading Jenny's poetry or listening to her songs, you'll experience her drawing layers of far-reaching concern into particular moments, like concentric waves rippling inward toward a lone cast stone. InchThese Are the Sounds Left From LeavingInch showcases the perspective of a unique storytelling artist, with an evocative practice that hinges powerful narratives on the intricacies of a multifaceted musicality. A songwriter immersed in poetry, a poet immersed in music-her work in all it's forms is an invitation into a world of relatable introspection, in which even absences can be sculpted into vividly memorable verse.1 Just Like a River2 Kaleidoscope3 Watch You Fade4 July5 Lavender City6 Under a Sky7 You Think You're Like The Rain8 Invisible You9 Song of Yourself10 Here Comes Th

Dear is the eagerly awaited follow-up to Jenny Whiteley's Juno Award winning and internationally acclaimed 2004 album Hopetown'. Just like Hopetown picked up where Jenny's Juno Award winning, self titled debut left off, Dear takes us further down the road of one of Canada's best songwriters. Once again produced by Steve Dawson, Dear is blessed with many of the same musicians that appeared on Hopetown, including Amy Milan (Stars, Broken Social Scene), Dan Whiteley, Joey Wright (Sarah Harmer), Chris Whiteley, and many others from the rich Canadian community of roots music. Blending folk/roots style and instrumentation with contemporary production elements and sounds, a timeless and unique sounding album has emerged. Opening with the heart breaking Indoor Lightning and ending with the equally heartbreaking When It Rains I Pour, Dear is 12 songs strong. From toe tappers like Banjo Girl and Yellow Couch to a duet with Jim Byrnes (The Other Side Of Life) and the slow anthem of Write Me Away. There is a wisdom and depth to these songs that belie the gorgeously simple delivery and through it all Jenny's beautiful voice takes center stage. Dear laughs, and it cries. It says hello and it says goodbye. In short these dozen new songs are everything one could hope for from this Canadian songwriting treasure. Since the beginnings of Jenny's old band, Heartbreak Hill, in the late nineties, she has been singing, writing songs, and playing music for a living. Jenny has toured all over North America, playing historic venues and premier festivals, sharing the stage with some of her heroes along the way. Jenny is also the driving force behind the successful touring road show The Hootenanny' which brings together songwriters such as Jenny, Oh Susannah, Carolyn Mark, Shuyler Jansen and many others for cross-Canada tours. Watch for Jenny in Canada all through the fall.
