  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    With blues / rock influences, such as Patti Smith and Janis Joplin, this album is also inspired by the 20+ year marriage with her partner and, in some tracks, she brings to life this love that made ​​her fight against death.

    She has a distinctive voice, probably grown from roots, inspired by what she listened to, but the lyrics are sweet and melodic. A real treasure for those who follow and enjoy this genre.

    Each track, one by one, tells a mini-story about moments of her life and, with care, she reflects on various subjects, including some very recent ones in our society and situations that happen in everyday life, as the ‘99%’ tell us. Somehow, even situations related to what happens every day, these letters make it inspiring, timeless and also, in a certain way, refreshing .

    Perhaps contradictory to the fact that these tracks, including instrumental and lyrics, are inspiring and refreshing, they also could be a revival of some ancient roots that we used to listen to a few decades ago. It may be the beginning of a “New Age”, but we can also call back on the “Old Age” in a much more polite way and Norine definitely manages to captivate that audience, with many others to come.

    Must hear: ‘Lightning Strikes Twice’, ‘Today’, ’99 %’ + ‘The Perfect Love Affair’.

lyrics

BOY

Little boy was born today

His mother gave him away

Gave him to a family so he could get just what he needs

Taught him how to read

Taught him how to eat properly

Father combed his hair

Mother said his prayers at night



She said God don’t take him away

She said God don’t take him away

He’s my little boy little boy

Mother’s joy, mother’s joy



The boy becomes a man

Everything needed is close at hand

Goes to college

Becomes a hard working lad

He goes out a night

To watch the sky

Feels so glad that he’s alive

He’s a mother’s joy, mother’s joy

Little boy, little boy Mother’s joy, mother’s joy



One day last September

He saw her there she was old and gray

Deep lines arrayed

Small words conveyed

As tears gave way

She said boy I loved you

She said boy I loved you



You’re my little boy, little boy, little boy, Little boy

Mother’s joy mother’s joy…..

about

Norine Braun Vancouver, British Columbia

Her signature funky folk-blues sound simply cannot be matched. Best listened to as loud as your neighbours will tolerate. Abortmag

Her music sounds like the union of Nick Cave with Patti Smith & City and Colour deep in the Canadian forests.
MTM

An imaginative display of fine musicianship, potent vocals and heartfelt lyrics, talent like hers doesn't exactly come around too often. Music Emission
