Allison Crowe is writing and recording at home in Corner Brook, in advance of tour dates this Spring that will bring her to Fredericton, NB (April 29), Halifax, NS (April 30, May 2) and St. John's, NL (May 7).
This week, Allison's recorded three new originals: "Arthur" (not a Kinks kover); "By Any Terms"; and "Chasing the Rain". She's also recorded a cover.
"Cover Me" blog's Vincent Scarpa says: "Canadian singer-songwriter Allison Crowe drops great covers every time we turn around." Scarpa brands this newest interpretation "a lovely acoustic tribute to one of America's most underrated songwriters. Patty Griffin would surely approve of this bare-bones delivery that exposes what are some of Griffin's finest lyrics."

And, of course, here it is as a video song - music with a pair of photos by Edward McCrea.
On her most recent Tidings concert tour, Allison Crowe began performing "Mary", a song written by the sublime American singer-songwriter Patty Griffin. (She'd fallen in love with the song when US cable television program "Sons of Anarchy" featured it in its Season two episode "Balm".)
The New Year kicking in, Crowe pulled her piano stool over to the kitchen table, sat down and recorded this version simple and true.
