Editor's note

Kathleen Edwards writes plain songs about ordinary life.

A Canadian singer-songwriter whose folk-rock narratives feel lived-in and direct.

For the feel of her catalog, start with 'A Soft Place To Land' or 'Feelings Fade'. They're both good, plain examples of how she writes.

Edwards' songs don't dress things up. 'Hockey Skates' and 'A Soft Place To Land' are good examples, they're just straightforward stories about what happens to people. That's why her work sticks around; it sounds like someone telling you something true.

She started with 'Failer' in 2003 and kept putting out albums like 'Back to Me' and 'Asking for Flowers' through the 2000s. After stepping away for a bit in the 2010s, she came back with 'Total Freedom' in 2018 and has kept writing in that same unadorned style.
