Canadian folk singer/songwriter Catherine MacLellan’s newest release, “Water in the Ground” delivers just what its press release promises: poetic lyrics and vocal performances that may remind listeners of artists like Joni Mitchell. Ms. MacLellan is a fine writer and vocalist. This release, which features both her new album and a copy of her first, previously mail-order exclusive debut, “Dark Dream Midnight” is enough to keep folk fans happy for a long time. Both albums are available from True North Records in March of 2009.
