all feist, all the time.

“She’s much more than just the torch singer leaning against the ballad with a lone spotlight on her. In a past life, she was a shouty battle of the bands teen queen in a Calgary punk band. She’s stubborn and meticulous about things like the EQ level on the stereo and her long honed guitar tone. She’s been placed in the role of the most unlikely fashion icon, but mostly she’s a tomboy who doesn’t really do make-up.” — A&C Records

“There is something when you’re writing in seclusion, and then you make a record and then it goes out there, and you don’t actually see how people react, except at shows, so you play enough shows and you start to see how people… they own the songs for themselves.
It’s pretty amazing. It feels a little bit… it feels like anything, it leaves your hands and it changes into something else as it enters someone else’s. It’s a really, really strange, blind relationship between putting out music and taking in music. I mean I don’t kid myself when I hear Gillian Welch’s new album and I’m listening to the songs. It’s a strange blind gift she’s giving me because she has no idea what it’s going to mean to me or how I’m going to react. It’s really coming from a very central place in her, to a very central place in me. It will never be spoken about, it’s really an anonymous gift.”
