Julie Doiron - Woke Myself Up

We all are driven to doing certain things and making certain decisions in our lives for any number of reasons, be it ambition, fear, greed or love. The last purpose is perhaps the most identifiable to most of us, and so it is no great mystery that that which drives US can both reward US immensely and plummet US into the greatest depths o inconsolable sadness and regret. On Julie Doiron's fist album of new material in over two years, she addresses in her signature intimate songwriting style both the heights and the fallout in a way that forces the listener to reexamine their own loves. She has released six full-lengths and two EPs prior to Woke Myself Up, including the Juno Award winning Julie D0iron & the Wooden Stars album. This is the first album of new material since 2004's Goodnight Nobody, featuring contributions from original Eric's Trip Lineup.
