Notes romoting her new album "Back to Me". In 1999, Edwards recorded her debut EP, Building 55, and toured throughout Canada to support it, busking and opening for acts like Hayden and Jane Siberry. A bad breakup led to more songwriting, much of which took place after Edwards moved out of Ottawa and into rural Quebec. Those songs became the basis of Failer, her debut full-length, which she recorded in Ottawa in late 2001. The album was a heartfelt mixture of folk and country, and drew upon influences like Whiskeytown and Gillian Welch. A major critical buzz began then, and gigs at the 2002 South by Southwest and opening for Richard Buckner led to a deal with Zoe/Rounder, which released Failer on January 14, 2003. The album garnered rave reviews, and Edwards and her band toured extensively in support, headlining clubs and theaters and playing arenas opening for Bob Dylan and the Rolling Stones. In 2004, Edwards headed back into the studio to record her second album, with her guitarist and bandleader Colin Cripps serving as producer.
