Jane Siberry |
Jane Siberry may not be a household name yet, but she deserves the same kind of large cult audience that such followers as Tori Amos and Sarah McLachlan have. But Siberry's songs aren't full of the navel gazing self-pity that the Lilith generation has embraced. Instead, she is one in a long line of unique Canadian Singer-Songwriters such as Leonard Cohen and Joni Mitchell. Like Mitchell, she has a pure, beautiful voice and like Cohen, her lyrics can be biting, poetic and funny. Siberry's cheery eccentricity and her way of wrapping catchy melodies in complex time signatures may have kept her off the charts, but it has resulted in many fine albums over the years. Her tune "Everything Reminds Me of My Dog" is the unofficial anthem of canine lovers the world over.Find Jane Siberry cds and Jane Siberry records on Reprise Records. |
