Jane Siberry: When I Was A Boy
Jane Siberry's unique‑sounding music has attracted collaboration from musicians such as Brian Eno and fellow Canadian Michael Brook. But she's still in control, as MARK PRENDERGAST discovers...
Listening to Toronto‑born Jane Siberry is quite unlike listening to anybody else. Her voice comes in like a whisper, then curls itself up the register to a plateau that would even make Liz Cocteau shiver. Jane also plays guitar, keyboards, synthesizers, computer keys and is a fine producer and mixer. Her sixth and latest Reprise album, When I was a Boy, features the talents of both Brian Eno and fellow Canadian Michael Brook, in addition to session regulars like Robert Ahwai (guitars) and James Pinker (drums/percussion). All of the album's 11 tracks convey a sense of compassion and a wistful exploration of the themes of love and human bonding, and there's a beautiful duet entitled 'Calling All Angels' with country songstress k.d. Lang. The overall sound is best described as spatial, with Jane using both acoustic and electronic instruments to underline her

Jane Siberry - The Eccentric Charms of a Pop Poet
Dressed in white lace stockings and a silky smoking jacket, she fluttered tentatively around the stage. With her frail figure and whispery voice, she seemed fragile under the spotlight’s glare. But as her pulsing, ethereal music gathered momentum, Jane Siberry spun a web around her audience in Detroit two weeks ago. At 29, Siberry has been hailed in Rolling Stone magazine as a “fascinating” new artist, and many critics feel she is the finest Canadian songwriter to appear in a decade. Once considered too eccentric for popular tastes, the Toronto singer is emerging into pop’s mainstream: her North American tour of 50 cities is currently under way, and last week 30,000 copies of her third album, The Speckless Sky, arrived in record stores.
