Are You Gone

Back from the frontline battles of the hard, dull, unglamorous work of actually saving the environment, Sarah Harmer reminds us of her varied musical talents ranging from the raucous, joyous “cow punk” to tender, angsty, melancholy musings. If at first she doesn’t grab you, listen again, and be seduced by her warm, anchored thoughtfulness and sensual restlessness. She’s among the most emotionally intelligent artists Canada has given us, created a special body of musical work, is a tough, beautiful woman and made the world a profoundly better place. Lucky us. They don’t make them like her any more.

If this single "A new low" is any indication of what this forthcoming album will be like, the much overdue offering from Sarah Harmer; one of Canada's premiere songwriters, should be a stellar one.
