It’s been five years since Beck released his indie bedroom classic, Hollow. Now the Toronto artist has found a new home: the True North label, where gifted singer-songwriter Bruce Cockburn resides. Beck belongs in such company. Intimate songs such as “My Low” and “I Need Light,” featuring Canadian songbird Leslie Feist, are memorable gems that ring true, lyrically and melodically. And his gentle delivery, on fragile ballads like “Lay Down,” makes his material all the more hypnotic and haunting.
