Ruth Moody is an Australian-born soprano singer-songwriter and member of the Canadian folk trio The Wailin' Jennys. Wanderer is the much-anticipated new solo album from Canadian singer-songwriter Ruth Moody, founder and current member of the Billboard Charting and JUNO Award-winning folk trio, The Wailin' Jennys. Recorded at Sound Emporium in Nashville, the self-penned album was co-produced by Moody and Dan Knobler (Allison Russell, Lake Street Dive) and mixed by Tucker Martine (My Morning Jacket, First Aid Kit). Her first release since the acclaimed 2013 album "These Wilder Things" and her celebrated collaborations with Mark Knopfler, "Wanderer" is a transcendent collection of ten deeply powerful and personal songs that reflect Moody's inner world and wanderings. Both lush and intimate, the album weaves otherworldly vocals, open guitars, intricate harmonies, soaring steel pedals, and Moody's signature inspired lyrics, taking the listener on a journey through time and space. From the restless energy of "Seventeen," a true story of unrequited love and a tribute to Moody's hometown of Winnipeg, to the poignant duet with fellow Canadian folk music star Joey Landreth on "The Spell of the Lilac Bloom," Wanderer explores the emotional journey of motherhood, the joys and pains of life, the mysterious and complicated dance of love, and ultimately the longing we all feel to return home, wherever that may be.
