Review

Constant Emotion is the second CD from Salt Lake City singer-songwriter Kate MacLeod (pronounced "McCloud"). Eleven original songs display the spare, often chilling lyric style that earned MacLeod the "Utah Lyricist Of The Year" award from the Private Eye Reader's Poll. Kate also covers "Piney Wood Hills," by Buffy Sainte Marie.

Produced by Charles Sawtelle at Rancho Deville Studios in Boulder, CO, Constant Emotion features MacLeod on guitar, fiddle, harmonica and vocals; Peter Rowan, vocal harmonies; Matt Flinner on tenor guitar, banjo, mandolin, and bouzouki; Barry Carter, acoustic bass; Mark Diamond, acoustic bass; Charles Sawtelle, guitar; Sally Van Meter, dobro; Kelly Wallis, drums; and Ty Burhoe, tabla. Kate MacLeod's songs - subtle, philosophical, firmly within the folk tradition - express a positive view of life. Included are "Long Ride Home," concerning a long train ride that translates an elusive inner journey as well (Peter Rowan adds a fine harmony); "Adam," tale of a dangerous religious fanatic that harks back in feeling to Dylan's "Ballad of Hollis Brown"; "A Long Time Ago," connecting personal childhood orientations with the state of the planet; and "Second Chance At Romance," a poetic tour-de-force in which a recovering alcoholic finds new possibilities. "Talkin' About Good News" and "The Red And Green House" reflect a lighter mood. Raised in the Washington, D.C. area, Kate MacLeod moved to Salt Lake City in 1979, where she taught drafting and geometric theory of ancient instrument design at Peter Prier's Violin Making School Of America. In addition to solo performances, she plays Celtic music with Shanahy.
