Basia Bulat, “Heart of My Own” (Rough Trade, 2010)
Reviewed by Abu Ramses
ALL TRACKS FCC CLEAN
Sophomore album of Canadian singer-songwriter Basia Bulat inspired by her stay in Dawson City, Yukon. Indie folk ballads featuring autoharp, introspective lyrics and solo vocals. Basia plays autoharp, guitar, piano, organ, pianoette, banjo, ukelele, and bass. Lots of other instrumentation.
Try tracks 3, 5, 11
Tracks
1 Go On – driving, acoustic guitar blossoms into bigger ensemble
2 Run – Sad ballad in ¾ time
3 Sugar and Spice – three-finger picking guitar, slow, ballad
4 Gold Rush – features autoharp, more energy than most tracks
5 Heart of My Own – cello backup and solos
6 Sparrow – ukulele. She sounds out of breath on this one
7 If Only You – upbeat. I’m over you, but take me back
8 I’m Forgetting Everyone – slow ballad, with random cymbals
9 The Shore – autoharp and pianoette(?)
10 Once More, for the Dollhouse – slow, low-key instrumentation
11 Walk You Down – full ensemble, biggest song on the album
12 If It Rains – Dylanesque with organ, bass and drum backup
