Song Of The Day

Julie Doiron: Heartache's Frayed Edges

In "Consolation Prize," Doiron addresses a man, living in the aftermath of a breakup, who finds that his friends won't let him leave it behind. By bringing up the pain wrought from sympathy, she's effectively doing the same thing, but Doiron isn't going for a palliative here.

Second Stage

Julie Doiron: 'Heavy Snow'

Julie Doiron's recent collaborator, Phil Elverum of the band Mount Eerie, calls Canadian singer-songwriter the "keeper of the world's greatest and saddest voice." But these days, Doiron sings a more optimistic tune. She even describes her latest album, I Can Wonder What You Did With Your Day as "positive and uplifting."

Tiny Desk

Julie Doiron: Tiny Desk Concert

If you see Canadian singer-songwriter Julie Doiron perform live, you'll hear a good deal of distorted guitars and intense drumming. Well, at least when she's not performing at the NPR Music offices. It took her a few takes, but we wound up with a bare, stark and memorable set at the Tiny Desk.
