Product Description

The stellar vocals, songwriting artistry and compelling persona of the legendary, Cris Williamson radiates from this timeless 2001 release. Ashes was recorded following the loss of a 20-year relationship. It tracks a powerful passage - the proverbial Phoenix rising - through grief into the places of healing and light. These are songs of witnessed loss, but also of great triumph and joy. Brilliantly produced by longtime collaborator Teresa Trull and featuring friend Bonnie Raitt on the beautiful , Cris considers these songs the best she has written to date. From the artist who gave us the break-through album The Changer and the Changed, whose career spans three decades and whose work has been a major contribution to the movement that changed the political landscape for women. Ashes is a land mark album for Cris Williamson whose career embodies all the elements of a True Folk legend.
