Shine On (Sarah McLachlan album) – 2014
Shine On is the eighth studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter Sarah McLachlan, released on May 6, 2014 by Verve Records. It was recorded in Vancouver and produced by longtime collaborator Pierre Marchand.
According to McLachlan, the album was inspired by her father’s passing and her own appreciation of life.
Shine On eases up on the heartbreak and lets McLachlan show an earthier side. “I needed to challenge myself a lot,” she said. “I needed to step outside my comfort zone. For that reason, I made an effort to write with people I hadn’t written with before and to try different producers, like Bob Rock, to take some of the songs in a different direction.”
