Dark Sentiments Season 7 – Day 9: A Little Diversion
Posted By Randy on October 9, 2016
All thematic threads be damned, let’s take a little side road, shall we? Believe me, you won’t be disappointed.
In the past year, we’ve found Canadian singer-song writer Lindi Ortega. If you’ve never heard of her, then prepare to be delightfully educated. She’s been described as “country’s most delectable vixen”, “not-quite-saintly”, and having a voice that offers, “… her own unique take on the torch and twang of her country influences such as Hank Williams, Patsy Cline, Johnny Cash and Loretta Lynn ….”
Her work incorporates inspirations from, “… the sights and sounds and souls of those who’ve found themselves in Faded Gloryville, brought to its saloons, flophouses and cheap motels by drink, by debt, by vanity, heartbreak, failure, fear or misfortune.”
So, the darkness of the heart, bad choices, ill advised self-medication, and circumstance. Sweet.
So now, take a sip of Lindi Ortega and learn just how sweet darkness can be.
