In her first quarter-century in the music business, Canadian k.d. lang has gone from straight-up country artist to iconic pop songstress, with many side-steps into pop, jazz, and show tunes along the way. An eight-year break since her last record of originals (2000’s Invincible Summer) has re-channeled and recharged both the songwriter and that brightly toned voice that lies within. In assembling this intimate 11-song album, which features many of her enduring collaborators but is defined by her powerhouse vocals, lang drew inspiration from all her favorite musical styles. The bass- and string-driven “Coming Home” and “I Dream of Spring”--a Spanish-style pop dream accented with Greg Leisz’s signature steel guitar--are easy picks for “Constant Craving”-like success, yet Watershed’s magnetism is captured in the expansion of lang’s songwriting palette: the hushed jazz of “Flame of the Uninspired," the Brazilian jolts of “Upstream,” and the absolute rawness of “Jealous Dog,” which strips away any studio veneer, leaving that voice as pure and bewitching as ever. --Scott Holter
