Eve has the most beautiful voice and her songs get right under my skin. I was fortunate to have been given an advance copy, right after my diagnosis, and her album was one of the things that got me through some of my darkest moments.
Eve's mother passed away from breast cancer in June 2005, Eve's music is infused with heartbreak and love. In her words:
"'A Kinder Season' was recorded in months following my mother's death. Although none of the songs are directly about my mom, the album is permeated with the emotion of that time - a time of great sadness but also of extreme clarity, beauty, even joy. If I learned anything from my mom's death, it is that sweetness can be found in the bitterest season."
Amen to that.
And this time, right now, is my 'Kinder Season.'
You can find out more by visiting Eve's web site or through her record label, Borealis Records.
