Memories of Vancouver
Friday evening, I was at the free Roy Thomson Hall Patio music series. Oh Susanna has put out 7 albums but tonight her set was taken mostly from A Girl In Teen City. All these songs were about being a teenager growing up in Vancouver. So from a particular Chinese restaurant to a music venue to a hang-out spot, there was an abundance of details. Even her other numbers had a specificity in her lyrics that are often lacking in most songs. This extended to covers including Sleepy Little Sailor. As such, there was a strong story-telling vibe to the music even though it was more country than folk.
