Merrie Amsterburg makes powerful music. Her songs are stirring, poignant, and elegant and have been compared to those of Shawn Colvin and Richard Thompson. Originally released in 1997 (on the Q Division label), Season of Rain was Merrie Amsterburg's debut recording. Produced by Mike Denneen (Letters to Cleo, Aimee Mann, Jen Trynin, Gigolo Aunts), the record achieved significant regional success at radio (with the first single 'Say Good-bye'), press (one of the Boston Phoenix's top 10 records of 1997) and retail. This re-release on Zoë / Rounder features the new single 'World of Our Own Making,' as well as two newly recorded bonus tracks, including a stunning cover of the Police's 'Walking on the Moon.' A new full-length album is planned for early 2000.
