Costelo and Sedore then mixed the album in mono to retain its classic feel. “When recording the album, I had to balance my desire for perfection and wanting it to be real. And being real always won out.” The album explores sweeping string arrangements and lush vocal harmonies by Selah Koile, Samm Reid, and Kirsten Donawa with true 60s authenticity. In contrast to the moody depths of her last record, Fire and Fuss (2009), We Can Get Over is a kaleidoscope of colours, textures, and genres.“It’s love, passion, aging, and spirituality. All the things you start to think about as you get a little bit older,” says Costelo. Costelo's CD Release is Saturday, October 20th, at 8pm.
