With a career that has spanned four decades producing an acclaimed body of work that has sold over 2 million copies worldwide,
Bruce Cockburn continues to be revered by fans and fellow musicians alike as one of the most important songwriters of his
generation. Small Source of Comfort is Cockburn's first studio album in six years - a rhythmic and highly evocative collection of
14 new tracks inspired by his renowned unusual and diverse muse - recent trips to Afghanistan and ponderings on the
re-incarnation of Richard Nixon, to road trips and unreturned phone calls. The album boasts some of the best musicians
recording today, including violinist Jenny Scheinman, former Wailin Jenny Annabelle Chvostek, and long time collaborators
Gary Craig, Jon Dymond and producer Colin Linden. As both a songwriter and a guitarist, Bruce Cockburn is considered among
the world's best. The New York Times called him a virtuoso on guitar, while Acoustic Guitar magazine placed him in the
esteemed company of Andrés Segovia, Bill Frisell and Django Reinhardt.
