Anne Schaefer - The Waiting Room (2012)


Recorded with award - winning producer, Joby Baker (Alex Cuba, The Bills, The Cowboy Junkies, Mae Moore) and fleshed out with a stellar lineup of musicians including, Kevin FoxScott WhiteKelby MacNayr and Adrian Dolan, “The Waiting Room” is a near theatrical ride that takes listeners through the absurdity, loneliness, passion and piss-off’s of life and everything in between. From Dinah, who imagines herself as the superheroine, Black Canary and little Lily who wistfully wishes she could walk through walls and meet some aliens, to Beth who poignantly remembers a lost lover and Jacob who is shocked at the realization that his is suddenly very old even though he still feels like a boy, “The Waiting Room” seems to touch virtually everyone with it’s wit, wisdom, grace and grandeur.
