Tired of slick, pre-packaged bubblegum pop divas and overly earnest, angst-ridden singer-songwriters? Get ready for a bracing gust of fresh air, in the form of Edith Wallace. Edith is not 16. She is a wife, mother, lover and reluctant housewife. Thongs are things she wears on her feet. She does not possess a leather bustier or a bellybutton ring. If she uses the word “baby,” it concerns a small human – not her latest love interest. She writes songs about the struggles and triumphs of ordinary life, and sings them in a warm, clear voice that wraps the listener up in a soft thick blanket of sound. She infuses the everyday with humour, wisdom and compassion. From heart-wrenching to hilarious and everywhere in between, Edith’s performances are always passionate and profoundly, captivatingly honest. On April 30th she’ll be joined by award-winning piano/keyboardist Michael Creber, Gord Maxwell & David Steele (backing vocals), Tim Stacey (bass), Angela Hodgson (violin) and the Vancouver Women’s Chorus for an unforgettable, uplifting evening of music.
