: Release Notes: \/ , \/ ,
' '
,: Long before Jessica Jalbert began recording under the solo :,
: moniker Faith Healer, she fostered a tight collaborative :
:' friendship with fellow Edmonton-bred polymath Renny Wilson. ':
,: TheyÆve made boppy garage rock in Tee-Tahs, kicked up a racket :,
: in Punk Explosion, and even played in a scattering of cover :
:' bands. In 2011, Wilson was a key contributor to JalbertÆs solo ':
,: albumBrother Loyola. :,
: :
:' So when Jalbert set about creating her new solo album under the ':
,: name Faith Healer, she naturally called on her old buddy to help :,
: out on production and instrumental duties. The result of these :
:' sessions is the debut LP Cosmic Troubles, which will come out ':
,: this spring on Mint Records. :,
: :
:' Jalbert wrote this material while absorbing a steady diet of ':
,: psychedelic rock from the æ60s and æ70s. This fixation :,
: translates into inventive songs that combine the sun-kissed :
:' sparkle of classic pop harmonies with head-swimming trippiness ':
,: and a few forays into thundering fuzz. :,
: :
:' She and Wilson played all of the parts themselves. ôHe had a ':
,: recording set-up in his parentsÆ basement,ö Jalbert explains of :,
: the sessions. ôHis mom and dad cooked us dinner pretty much :
:' every time. It was very much a family affair.ö Wilson captured ':
,: the songs using his vintage console, which ù if rumours are to :,
: be believed ù may have been used on some Steely Dan recordings :
:' back in the day. ':
,: :,
: The pair worked slowly, their overlapping schedules meaning that :
:' they were only able to record periodically. ôWe had such ':
,: intertwined lives, because we were both working at the same :,
: record shop, and he was working on the days I had off,ö Jalbert :
:' remembers. ôWe could record on Tuesday afternoons, that was the ':
,: only time we had. And if one of us didnÆt have a free Tuesday, :,
: we couldnÆt record that week.ö :
:' ':
,: Eventually, they logged enough Tuesdays to finish Cosmic :,
: Troubles, which captures the warmth of the Summer of Love along :
:' with an eclectic sense of anything-goes adventurousness. Opener ':
,: ôAcidö finds Jalbert renouncing hallucinogens after a bad trip, :,
: but the wah-laced fretwork suggests that she might still be :
:' feeling some of the drugÆs after-effects. ':
,: :,
: ôCanonized,ö on the other hand, swaps out woozy psych for the :
:' speaker-assaulting distortion of alt-rock, its titanic chorus ':
,: sounding like a long-lost hit from the grunge generation. :,
: Expanding the palette even further, the blissfully airy hooks of :
:' ôUntil the World Lets Me Goö are bathed in watery guitar ':
,: jangle, while ôAngel Eyesö begins with pensive pastoral plucking :,
: before unexpectedly speeding up during its cloudburst finale. :
:' ':
,: Clearly, Jalbert and Wilson bring the best out in one another. :,
: They have already covered a lot of ground over the years, but :
:' Cosmic Troubles is their greatest triumph. ':
