First New Album In Over A Decade! Canada's most celebrated songwriter, and international folk legend Gordon Lightfoot is back with the new album Solo. The record sees Lightfoot returning to the studio to release his first album of new music since 2004's Harmony. Solo showcases Lightfoot at his most pure, alone in the studio with his guitar. The album is heralded by the first single "Oh So Sweet." In the making of Solo, Lightfoot discovered a treasure trove of unreleased material in his Toronto home. Two CDs of songs he recorded nearly two decades ago were tucked away in his office. The songs were written in late 2001 and early 2002, just before he suffered a near-fatal abdominal aortic aneurysm later that year. After discovering the songs, he went into Grant Avenue Studio in downtown Hamilton, ON with his guitar to create this beautifully minimal work. Of the new work, Lightfoot says, "I thought my fans would be interested in hearing what songs sound like when first written."
