Lucinda Williams shares heartbreak on new album by Wes Orshoski (Reuters)NEW YORK (Billboard) - Loss and loneliness are at the core of
Lucinda Williams' largely down-tempo album, "West," the singer/songwriter's first release since 2003. The disc, slated to be released February 13 via Lost Highway, finds the Grammy winner coping with another painful breakup and the passing of her mother, whom she reminisces in songs like "Mama You Sweet" and "Fancy Funeral." In such songs as "Come On," "Learning How to Live" and "Everything Has Changed," Williams again deals with heartbreak.
"The songs deal with a chapter in my life and they definitely tell a story," Williams told Billboard.com. "It's probably been the most prolific time in my life as a writer. I'd been through so many changes -- my mother's death and a very tumultuous relationship that ended badly -- so obviously there's a lot of pain and struggling, but it ends with a look toward the future." - complete article
