Sarah Harmer: Oh Little Fire

by Cameron Perrier – Bishop Carroll High School, Calgary AB Jul 27, 2010

4 stars

Oh Little Fire is fresh, elegant and Canadian.

Sarah Harmer’s fifth album, Oh Little Fire, offers steady beats and lustrous vocals amidst a rich blend of rock and folk tunes that left my mind relaxed and my soul ignited. The Canadian artist-activist keeps the mood lively in Captive, but croons along to a mellow Late Bloomer. Meanwhile, the drums and electric guitar set a fresh beat that is Canadian, tasteful and elegant. With a ripened sound compared to previous albums, Harmer’s smooth hipster tracks will certainly rule my earphones for the next little while. Oh Little Fire easily set my fingers alight as they effortless snapped along to the rhythm.

Cameron’s fave track: Captive
