			"one of New England's first and brightest stars"—Boston Globe "passionate!"—Sing Out! "incomparable"—Dirty Linen Lui Collins established herself as a powerful presence in the folk community with her early albums on Philo and Green Linnet. Waterbug Records now announces her newest and 8th solo CD, Closer. A departure from her earlier recordings, Closer features Collins' poems in a 22 track confluence of poetry and song. Richard Cuccaro, in Acoustic Live of NYC, describes Closer as “a shimmering set of jewels, celebrating every aspect of her crossing to the hopeful place she has found for herself.” He calls the final poem, “Hanging Up the Snowshoes,” “staggeringly beautiful,” – and the entire album “a keeper.”
