Bio
Rachael Kilgour announces the release of her self-titled album. Recorded at Sacred Heart Music Center with Eric Swanson and produced by Haley Bonar, the album is Kilgour’s first. “This project was about three years in the making. For a long time, I have had the material, but lacked the know-how and connections to get the product I wanted,” said Kilgour. “These songs are so important to me; I couldn’t bear to release them prematurely. So through a long, long process of trail and error I finally figured things out; I met and worked with some of the most talented people in the area: the artists and graphic designer, the musicians and sound technician…Haley was so helpful as a producer. She’s obviously comfortable in the studio - very creative and very decisive. It was just what I needed.” Rachael Kilgour’s 12 songs cover many aspects of the 24-year-old artist’s life, from social activism to heartache, love and a new family. Kilgour has made a name for herself as a singer-songwriter with her spot-on lyrics, captivating voice and energetic delivery. “It was such a challenge to try and capture myself and what makes me a memorable performer in this tiny piece of plastic,” Kilgour said, “but we did it and I am so happy with the outcome. I’m excited for people to hear it for the first time.” The album features singer, guitarist and songwriter Rachael Kilgour; backup vocalists Adeline Wright and Haley Bonar; percussionist Dan Westerlund; bassist Matt Mobley; electric guitarist Jake Hanson; and instrumentalists Lance Rhicard and Kathy McTavish. Kilgour began playing the violin at age 10 and continued the pursuit at the University of Minnesota Duluth where she majored in music education. Midway through her studies, she began writing and performing her own music, which she decided to pursue full-time. Kilgour was a back-up vocalist and violinist with Sara Thomsen and the Three Altos. She also toured with nationally recognized recording artist Catie Curtis. Kilgour was a 2008 finalist in both the Big Top Chautauqua and the Music to Life songwriting contests. Rachael Kilgour will be sold at the Electric Fetus, Northern Lights Bookstore, Adeline Inc. and Barnes & Noble in Duluth as well as online at www.rachaelkilgour.com and at www.cdbaby.com. -

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem, & some songs, on myspace...
Poem 187 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(see my blog for details): A SOUTH SHIELDS WALKABOUT - AUTUMN 2001
Out of the museum-and-gallery
(Wiser on Cookson and the local way),
Down Ocean Road with, to the right of me,
Its eateries and, left, neat places to stay;
Before, on either side, Marine Parks -
The southern-one a most beautiful place,
Teeming with moorhens, swans, grebes and mallards
In a small lake at a scenic-hill’s base.
Then (holding chips from the parade’s cafe
And, thus, a flock of gulls squawking above)
Onto the South Pier I made my way:
Seeing seaweed over rocks - like a glove -
And high-and-dry sands held from transgression
By growth of grass and the weaving of wood,
Plus, in the dim light of a sleepy sun,
Fishing boats returning to Tynemouth’s hood.

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this folk-carol on myspace...
Poem 230 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(see my blog for details):
CHRISTMAS SUNG SIMPLY
As gospellers have said,
Beneath signalling skies,
On land dusty to tread,
A trough in a stable
Was the strawy first-bed
Of a divine baby -
The forgiving Godhead.
A season for new hope -
There then and here now;
The yuletide of goodwill -
There then and here now.
In respect of this chance,
Beneath bright or dark skies,
Faith's the star that we glance
Attending Christ's churches
And trying to enhance,
With singing and ritual,
Our God-loving stance.
A...
