Kate Rusby被誉为民谣宝贝,她的嗓音略微低沉沙哑,几乎所有的曲子都带着忧郁感伤的气质.有人说,作为Equation的主唱,她对后任的Cara Dillon产生过巨大的影响,甚至cara的前两张专辑都带有kate的影子.



Artist:Kate Rusby
Song:Awkward Annie


I gave to you a hen,
You gave it back again,
Without it's eggs,
My Annie.
I gave to you a hare 1,
You really didn't care,
Now it has no legs,


Oh Annie let me in,
I will fly, I will swim,
I will die if you don't come near me,
Oh no, don't you say so,
You are my dear, My Annie
I gave to you a dog,
You threw for it a log 2,
Now it won't come back,
My Annie.
I gave to you a pig,
Though it wasn't very big,
Now the meats all black,
My Annie.


I gave to you a cow,
You really don't know how,
It flew away,
My Annie.
I gave to you a horse,
I'm a silly fool of course,
For you rode away,
My Annie.


I gave to you my heart,
You tore it all apart,
When you rode away,
My Annie


民谣女歌手Kate Rusby从出生起就住在南约克郡的巴恩斯利,并且是在一个音乐世家长大的。她的父母有一个同乐会式的舞蹈团体,在她儿时,父母就将英国民谣介绍给了她。然后她就同姐姐Emma一起加入那个同乐会,偶尔唱一些和声,演奏小提琴。 12岁,她成为了吉他主奏。15岁,她在Holmfirth音乐节上开始自己的Solo生涯,在那里她被介绍给了另一位年轻的年轻的民谣女歌手Kathryn Roberts,她们开始一起演出,过了一段时间的磨合,以她俩名字一起的专辑出版了,这张专辑获得了那年(1995年)民谣音乐的一个奖项。Kate还同女子民谣合唱团体The Poozies合作,包括1997年的专辑Come Raise Your Head和1998年的Infinite Blue。
光看专辑Cover的温馨,便可以推测出这张唱片的整体调调。只是很难想像,原来这个33岁女人的声音竟然如此精致,原来这张专辑已经是她个人的第7张,原来她已经荣获过2届BBC Radio Folk 3大奖。原来这是Kate在婚变和制作人的决裂后自己发行的专辑。一切一切的原来只是让我对这女人产生更浓厚的兴趣。其实关注这张专辑纯粹是因为Aamzon榜单的高排名,当听到第一首标题曲目就似乎注定了这张民谣专辑又会是我接下来一段日子里生活的音乐了。和谐,真诚而又宽慰人的嗓音,彻头彻尾让我联想到了歌曲同样可以像诗一样美伦美幻的吟唱,质朴的钢琴声,清脆的吉他声,这些词语基本都会与民谣有联系。只是觉得Kate的嗓音真的很特别,很自然,很纯。总之,一切夸大的修饰说多了也是浪费,需要自己的验证才可以体会那种一扫阴霾,雨后彩虹般的欣然。
