Cowboy Junkies

The stealth with which Margo Timmins' voice envelopes the senses and emotions of her audience can be almost frightening, precisely because she's so humble and unassuming. The hypnotic chanteuse and her brother Michael bring their Cowboy Junkies on a 'Winter Waltz' tour back to New York to promote their eighth album, 'Rarities, B-Sides and Slow Sad Waltzes'. This album mixes up some driving folk-rock with some of the haunting etherea that made 'Caution Horses' and 'The Trinity Sessions' such compelling work. And if the audience is blessed, she'll reprise such classics as 'Misguided Angel', 'Sun Comes Up, It's Tuesday Morning' and the Cowboy Junkies' otherworldly cover of 'Sweet Jane'.
