Roxanne Potvin - No Love for the Poisonous
When Colin Linden produced Potvin’s second album, he quickly united her with Daniel Lanois. “You’re both from Hull, you both speak French, you both love New Orleans, so it’s perfect,” Linden told Potvin.

The bilingual beauty also delivers one nugget in French and another gem in both official languages.
