Tonight I listened to the only CD I got for Christmas, the album
Waves by Kelly McMichael. All ten tracks are strong but my
current top four favourites are (3) Stepping Stone, (2) Out the
Window, (7) I Won't Stop, and (8) Montreal. I'll write a longer
review after a few more listens. Check her out on her bandcamp
page at https://kellymcmichael.bandcamp.com/album/waves
where you can stream the tracks. Merchandise is also available,
including a digital album for C$10, a CD for C$15, an LP for
C$30, two cool t-shirts that are each C$20, and a tote bag
that is C$15. All of those last six physical items include the
digital album for free. (And note that C$1 is currently US$0.78.)

Yes, it certainly isn’t country as the picture of Kelly on
the horse might indicate to some, but to me it indicates
a virile confident woman in the same way that Vladimir
Putin likes to be pictured bare-chested on a horse.

Also the horses/waves t-shirt might be referring to
some analogy of horses to waves in Celtic mythology,
though the CD isn’t Celtic music either.

Some may know Kelly from her previous work in
the band Renders, or from her brief stint as part
of Sarah Harmer’s touring band before the pandemic
ended the tour, or for her recent tour opening for
and also playing with The Burning Hell.

Anyway, I’m glad you like it; thanks for the feedback!

And Happy New Year to all readers!

The East Magazine recently posted their top 100 songs of 2021
from The Atlantic Provinces of Canada, and Out the Window
is number 7 and Stepping Stone is number 1. You can read
their short reviews of those two songs at https://www.theeastmag.com/2021/12/30/the-best-music-of-2021/4/
