“If one of us is suffering then none of us are free...”

Cover art for Jane Siberry sone Bountiful Beautiful Jane Siberry is such an interesting singer-songwriter. I’ve been a fan for more than 40 years, writing about her here for more than 25, and during that time she’s released albums in myriad genres, with myriad collaborators, changed her name to Issa (and back), reinvented her website myriad times, reinvented the way she distributes her music myriad times.

It seems naive to write that she’s “back,” as she never left. But she does have a new album in the offing, In the Thicket of our Own Unconsciousness, with two tracks available for free advance download, Bountiful Beautiful and Bailout. 

if one of us is in darkness less bright our light shall be — if one of us is suffering then none of us are free…

The music is interesting in a whole new way, but it also includes longtime collaborators David Ramsden and Rebecca Jenkins, and Rebecca Campbell, whose voices dovetail so beautifully with hers.

I jumped at the chance to see her in No ember in a funky venue in Chelsea Quebec. She is marvellous. And her performance was a liturgy.
