New Album 'Home Front'","description":"A long-distance pal returns to The podcast. Sensational Singer- Prolific Songwriter - Road Warrior.   Terra Lightfoot   Terra Lightfoot has a well-earned reputation as a tireless live performer, with a tour history mapped across the globe and awards testifying to every mile logged along the way. To date, Lightfoot's marathon tours have touched down in eight countries across four continents. She also conceived, created, curated, produced and co-headlined The Longest Road Show, an all-female touring revue.     Most fans would reasonably assume that the singer-songwriter\u2019s natural element is in the spotlight. But even accomplished touring artists like Lightfoot feel the insistent tug of home. That place, which for Lightfoot is a scenic hideaway, is captured in warm detail on the artist\u2019s intimate new album, Home Front. In stark contrast to the anthemic alt-pop riffs of 2017\u2019s New Mistakes and 2023\u2019s Healing Power (each of which earned the artist JUNO Award nominations and Polaris Music Prize mentions), this is an unplugged session in more ways than one.     In Terra's words ..... \u201cThis house is a special place. \u201cIt sits all by itself between woods and streams that go on for acres and acres and a beautiful wetland teeming with wildlife. I find myself living more comfortably in my own bones than ever before when I\u2019m here. There is a deep quiet here, in the house that backs onto the beaver marsh. Blue herons fly, and moose and bears walk the forest path out back. It is a place where I can\u2019t help but be more connected to the natural world. Being so engrossed in the world of loud rock \u2019n\u2019 roll guitar doesn\u2019t leave a lot of space for field recording or softly strummed nylon strings. Home Front is the place where I can share all those softer and sweeter moments.\u201d Home Front releases Oct 17th.   Next Week - Mariel Buckley and her newest album Strange Road Trip which premiers' same day Oct 17  ","author_name":"Mulligan Stew","author_url":"http:\/\/www.mulliganstew.ca\/","html":"
