Details:
"All of my life I can recall my cheeks turning rosy, a change of stomach tide, and that ominous internal voice "what did I just say?" sounding off in my head. It happens every time I put my foot in my mouth, as that play on words would have it. But that is the reality of my existence: leaping before looking - and then looking, and looking some more. It occurred to me that this is also how I''ve approached love…which explains my preoccupation in writing songs about that".
The new album, Foot in Heart, encompasses everything that phrase conjures.
In theme it circles the gamut of emotion, from excitement- in the mere idea of finding love and satisfaction- to lust, passion, devotion, confusion, frustration, anger, and sadness at the end of a relationship. But in true romantic prairie girl fashion she brings it full circle. These are hopeful, earnest, sometimes cynical but above all, honest piano pop songs.
Colleen will take a big leap forward when she releases her second full-length disc this November. Hearts will follow.
