Corrina Repp

Repp is one of those singer-songwriters that has cultivated an almost mythical reputation for crafting exquisite songs and performing stirring solo renditions to hushed crowds. She is that rare songwriter that is best seen and heard by herself. Her stage presence is unmatched in alternating intensity and charm. Repp's occasional panoramic song-scapes recall the ballads of Gillian Welch, though her menthol vocals have often been compared to the Cowboy Junkies' Margo Timmins. Her lyricism and phrasing has been aptly described as haiku-like; indeed the emphasis in I Take on Your Days is the vocal delivery, leaving the listener with the sensation of someone solidly pushing against their chest. This CD features exquisite letter pressed packaging.
