Haunting, adventurous, dramatic and spiritual, her voice ranks among the most beautiful sounds on the planet.

“Genius.” - The Village Voice

“Spellbinding.” - London Times

Probably best-known for her song Calling All Angels, a profoundly moving duet with fellow Canadian kd lang and the foreboding lead track from the "The Crow" (It Can't Rain All The Time), Issa (formerly Jane Siberry) has drawn on pop, folk, rock, jazz and electronic soundscapes to create an original, totally individual body of work.

A mesmerising performer with achingly beautiful music, she has a penchant for the surprising and new. With eleven major recordings, three poem books, her own independent label, and the acclaim of fans and peers alike, Issa continues to redefine and challenge herself as one of contemporary music's most original creative voices.

“... exhilarating, mysterious, unsettling: all these words describe Jane Siberry. Her music is a catalogue of exquisitely beautiful, funny, moving, scary and enigmatic recordings, impossible to categorize... The mystery is how Siberry was ever able to smuggle music as astounding, and subversive as The Walking and When I Was a Boy past the accountants and censors of a major label in the first place.” Peter Doggett, Record Collector

WHAT ARE SELF-DETERMINED TRANSACTIONS?

A flexible interface that accommodates all transaction needs.
It ensures that money (or lack of it) never comes between the artist and someone who might be lifted by their offering.

NOT donations
NOT pay-what-you-can
NOT guilt-trips
NOT tests of your integrity
NOT giving music away for free
IS a flexible price interface
IS respectful of our wider senses of balance
IS non-policing
IS a way of treating others as we would like to be treated
IS trusting that the world is good and so are people
IS acknowledgement that our creative gifts are just that. Gifts to us. Wanting to share them is the ultimate thank you back to the source.

OK, BUT HOW DO I DO IT?
You decide what feels right to your gut. $100? $20? $1? Let your gut* guide you.

*GUT - a rather plain word for an amazing place - the solar plexus (will power chakra) where there are more nerve endings there than any other chakra. 72,000. Hence the greater sensitivity to 'truth' for us is in this location. If this were the case in our baby finger, we would say 'trust your baby finger'.
