Tired Limbs for Ashes

Bearing traces of sad-eyed Brit-folk, old-school country and what's come to be called Americana, Tired Limbs for Ashes - the latest from Winnipeg 's Grant Davidson - is steeped not only in the textures and tones of the past, but also a warmth and an intimacy that is firmly, defiantly modern. These are songs of happiness desired, happiness found and the capricious state between the two. Cycling from love to regret, birth to death, and memory to melody, Grant occupies a terrain that's at once well-worn and rife with possibility.
