Newfoundland Vinyl

Allison Crowe

Traditional Atlantic Canadian songs reimagined through heavy, resonant piano and raw, soulful vocals. A sparse and haunting tribute to Newfoundland's oral history.

It's like a 200-year-old sea shanty sung by a soul singer in an empty church.

A stark, reverent, and deeply soulful exploration of coastal isolation and heritage.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The heavy, resonant piano chords on 'Cliffs of Baccalieu' that mimic the crashing of waves against rock.
A sudden, soulful vocal swell in 'Sonny's Dream' that transforms a simple folk tune into a powerful blues-inflected lament.
The playful, rhythmic bounce of 'The Mobile Goat Song' providing a brief, earthy respite from the album's heavier emotional themes.
