In the wake of a massive corporate merger, Patty Griffin lost her contract with A&M, and having nothing left to lose, she settled into the home studio of friend and guitarist Doug Lancio to record a few tracks.
It's not unusual for these types of relaxed, easy-going, no-pressure projects to yield career-defining moments, and such was the case with Griffin's wildly successful 1000 Kisses, which garnered rave reviews, grabbed a Grammy nomination, and launched a 10-month tour that concluded at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium.
A Kiss in Time features nearly an hour's worth of highlights from this event and includes material culled largely from her hit album. The set shows her to be a passionate performer with a powerful voice, and is joined onstage by soul-mates Emmylou Harris and Buddy and Julie Miller.
This undoubtedly has caused many rightfully to compare her with Harris, and with Lucinda Williams and the Indigo Girls. A Kiss in Time is a captivating collection full of subtle beauty and poignancy. ~ John Metzger, The Music Box
This album also features a bonus DVD of behind the scenes footage and interviews, plus the promo videos for Rain and Chief.
