    Vancouver based singer-songwriter Norine Braun is an enigma. Is she a jazz chanteuse? A blues singer? A pop singer? A rocker? On No. 8, she almost dares you to decide for yourself. Braun recruited a killer collection of roots rock, soul and blues session players including renowned producer and Juno nominated, Adam Popowitz (Pacifika, Mollies Revenge, Leela Gilday). The album is a mix of new originals by Norine Braun with blues, roots rock and soul at the centre.
    "Over the course of her eight albums local songwriter Braun has developed exceptionally sharp lyricism, fluid vocals and a way with a driving melody. Case in point, the single "Drift Away" from her new CD." - Stuart Derdeyn The Province Vancouver BC


    " No. 8 receives my highest rating of 5*****. Highly Recommended and Thoroughly Enjoyed. Another Treasure of an Album from a Truly Canadian Treasure..."- John Vermilyea (Blues Underground Network)

    "The album received an A on an Ato F grading scale, with Drift Away, Drunk, I Will I Won't, Sprack Chica Boogie, and Neutral Territory. Very eclectic sound! Powerful vocals set the tone for a blend of genres in this album." - Matt Nightingale CHSR Music Director

    "Overall, Norine is a singer/songwriter with a sense of humour... There is enough tongue-in-cheek and embracing of silliness to bring a smile to a hardened reviewer’s face. You can just tell that Norine Braun had a ball recording this album." -Ana Bedard Beatroute Magazine

lyrics

DRUNK
Drunk in the middle
Of the afternoon
I get lost in the muddle
Of your sweet perfume
When you said that you loved me
And no more tears would ever fall
Full of promise and pleasure
I risked it all

You give me 2 cents for speaking
I got nothing to say
You give me words full of wisdom
Leave me the bill to pay
Bulldaggers and lures
Your cigarette burns
We go adrift on the brink
And the emptiness sinks
Get all lost ‘til we’re full to the top
Insipid and rare
We gotta make it all stop

You’re getting sloppy and weepy
Sentimental and more
You got your suitcase in hand
To move in and before
I know what has happened
You’re deeply entrancing
You got me confused
Do you love or you use
Instinctive and nervous
I buckle in service
At your beck and call
You will find me impervious

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
