Critiques CD: Heirloom | The Lexicon of Accepted Ideas

Boys and girls, please keep your ears peeled for the new old-world sounds of this hot-to-fox-trot Montreal boys and girls outfit. Led by the world-weary and time-traveled voice of songwriter Lisa Malachowski – a lady about town who’s done time with formidable friends Mind That Bird, Valleymakers and Gabrielle Papillon – Heirloom is a collective of seriously talented multi-instrumentalists (mostly of the old-timey, back porch, pick it up and jam variety) take us on a trip. Stay tuned for a musical voyage to the lands of folk gumdrops, jazz philosophy joints, country woods waltzes and mellowed soft pop touches, all in all tunes that hit both the heart and the head.
