Bruce Cockburn - Driving Away video free download

Bruce Cockburn and Annabelle Chvostek with "Driving Away" from Cockburns 2011 album "Small Source of Comfort" (True North Records).

"Small Source of Comfort" is a small-scale, intimate collection of 14 acoustically based songs. These songs are steeped in intimacy balanced by Cockburn's acute -- sometimes bitingly ironic and self-effacing -- observations on spiritual, emotional, and political questions and reflections on the natural world that surrounds them. Topics of forgiveness, empathy, and ego-puncturing range freely throughout this recording. Cockburn's words have always held keen insight when pointed at the world, but these cut away the outside and look in the mirror first.

Cockburn enlisted Colin Linden to produce and play occasional slide guitar, as well as his seasoned comrades John Dymond (bass) and Gary Craig (drums) as a rhythm section. In addition, he enlisted violinist and singer/songwriter Jenny Scheinman to adorn many of these tracks, while Annabelle Chvostek co-wrote two selections and appears on both.
