Question: Which bear is best? Actually relevant question: What do you get when you cross singer-songwriter Kathleen Edwards with musicians who have performed with the Heartbreakers, the Wallflowers, Leonard Cohen and Wilco?

It will have been three years since Edwards’ last critically acclaimed album, Back to Me. Also, please note that track #9 is called “Oh Canada,” so it may be a song about bears, which will have actually made the first question somewhat relevant. We...  read more
