Release Notes:
Former Painting Daisy Rachelle van Zanten amps it up on her second solo release.
The snarl of dirty blues heard intermittently on her 2006 solo debut, Back To
Francois, takes centre stage on her new collection, ten tight tracks featuring
her searing, ever-improving slide guitar work. From the glorious yowl of opening
track "Showerhead," van Zanten is a fiercer creature this time around. There's
no hint of the sunny bluegrass featured prominently on her debut. Even her
quieter tracks are buzzing with feedback, electronic loops and grimy guitar
fuzz. Everything's a little fraught in van Zanten's Garden. Native chants lend
atmosphere, at times, and the light ping of keyboards occasionally offers a
little relief from the tension. Highlights, though tough to choose, include the
nicely galloping "Figure It Out" and "My Country," an ode to the beleaguered
Skeena Watershed. -Exclaim Magazine
