• The Beautiful Wild

  Compact Disc (CD)

  Jenn Grant's The Beautiful Wild, her fourth (but first US-released) record, expresses wonders beyond pleasant views. Having grown up on Prince Edward Island, Canada, she saw lush landscapes and the glistening sea right outside her window, and it was easy to take such things for granted. The album title is a challenge: to accept the grueling lows of life that come between glorious highs. To embrace life means acknowledging its inevitable confrontations. So why this record and why now? Simply put, it's the songs, soulful and ornate, with lush guitars, pianos, horns, banjos, strings and even a boys chorus populating The Beautiful Wild like trees in the woods. But everything stands aside for Grant's captivating singing, a thick tenor that trails like heavy smoke. While her past material established her throughout Canada as a musician of distinct note, The Beautiful Wild propels her into new realms of accomplishment. Guest musicians on the album include Ledwell, Erin Costello, Old Man Luedecke, Tanya Davis and Rose Cousins.The album won the East Coast Music Award for Pop Recording of the Year in 2013.
