Patchwork

IN PREORDER - PATCHWORK The album is available for preorder until January 29. Orders will ship a few days before the release date. The digital download will become available on release day. Much like a travel journal, Patchwork offers an observation of everyday life set to music with sensitivity and humour. The roots of the album stretch from Moncton, New Brunswick, to Lafayette, Louisiana, two cities separated by more than 3,500 kilometres, a distance that Lisa LeBlanc travelled in her van during a two-month road trip. In the years leading up to the recording of her sixth album, the Acadian musician also spent time in Corsica, where the rugged landscapes struck her, and in Ireland, where the cliffs and traditional music festivals brought her a new creative spark. Though nature plays a significant role on this new album, Lisa channels her love for 60’s and 70’s folk and rock music to create a rich tapestry of melodies, harmonies, and grooves. She also draws inspiration from traditional Cajun and Acadian music, thus crafting an original, timeless sound that only she could have conceived. The album’s title, Patchwork, is a nod to Lisa’s grandmother, who, for over 50 years, has been making quilts meticulously from fabric scraps that were not originally meant to be sewn together.
