 Fresh off tour with the legendary Bruce Cockburn, Canadian songstress Catherine MacLellan is quickly gaining notice for her heartfelt and honest brand of folk music. With a sweetly weathered voice that recalls that of a young Emmylou Harris or Patty Griffin, MacLellan could warm the coldest of Canadian nights. Her songwriting distinguishes itself—occasionally venturing into darker shades and always steeped in deep reflection. MacLellan’s latest effort Church Bell Blues earns her a place at Harris and Griffin’s table. Tunes like “Emily’s Song”, which was featured in CMJ Music Network’s “Download This!” column last week, highlight MacLellan’s ability to tell a story in the most honest and sincere way possible. Church Bell Blues is completely void of pretension, and immediately refreshing.
