\u2018Wind Rose\u2019 is the title track of fiddle player Jocelyn Pettit’s third album. Composed after returning to Canada from living in Glasgow, it is an uplifting opener symbolizing the start of a journey. A \u2018wind rose\u2019 is a nautical compass for reading the direction of the winds, and a metaphor for the visible and invisible forces that guide the currents of life. This self-produced release pays homage to the storms we have all weathered over these last few years. It features Pettit\u2019s fine band members on guitar, whistle, bass, and percussion.<\/p>\n
