An Evening With Jane Siberry @Char's
Tuesday November 25th 2025
doors 6:30pm start 7:30pm
Visionary, uncompromising, and ever-evolving, Jane Siberry is one of Canada's most original and influential singer-songwriters. Best known for transcendent works like Calling All Angels, Love Is Everything, and the iconic Mimi On The Beach, she has created a singular body of work that defies categorization. Her haunting contribution to The Crow soundtrack, It Won't Rain All The Time, continues to resonate more than ever three decades later. Despite a prolific career, Siberry reflects: “I feel like I’m inching my way toward my prime.”

AN ARTIST IN AN INDUSTRY IN FLUX
Siberry has long been at the vanguard of artists reshaping the relationship between creativity and commerce.
After parting ways with Warner/Reprise Records in 1996, she founded her own label, Sheeba, and pioneered a “pay-what-you-can” model for music downloads—inviting audiences into a trust-based creative economy. When asked what this model trusts in, she simply says, “All that is Good.”
Similarly, in a desire to break free from the confines of traditional touring, Siberry expanded her performances to include intimate “salon” tours in living rooms around the world—from llama farms in New Zealand to garages in Australia, kominkas in Japan, kitchens in Finland, and bell towers in rural England—creating connection and community. Her performances are described by audiences as intense, heraldic, funny, and trustworthy (meaning “audiences might feel freer to shed a tear”). She feels extremely privileged to be a musician.
ABOUT THE NEW RELEASE
Season One: In the Thicket Of Our Own Unconsciousness (nickname ‘THICKET’)
After a decade-long recording pause, Siberry returns with a highly anticipated gathering of songs. They are interwoven with musical and spoken segues that she calls “the matrix”, the album plays like a musical “Netflix series,” exploring themes of flickering consciousness, compassion, and rigorous self-reckoning. Siberry calls them “the moments in between.”
Co-produced with Renée Cologne, the album features longtime collaborators including Rebecca Jenkins, Peter Kiesewalter, Ken Myhr, Rich Brown, Rebecca Campbell, David Ramsden, Marlon Saunders, Alyson Palmer, and Jacob Switzer.
LYRICS FROM SEASON ONE:
The thicket of our OWN unconsciousness
“I became conscious in the thicket of my own unconsciousness.”
— WEE LITTLE MOUSIE
“When you were transparent, you did the only thing you knew to do. You shut your life force down.”
— TO SEE SPIRIT
“I've never done anything hard, I’ve been spoiled in the name of love. I’ve become soft and weak and indulged. I’m just a girl who can’t say no to herself.”
— YOU DOUBLE IT
“Imagine if every government or corporation only made decisions after meditation, then filtered them through the question: would this be good for every living thing?”
— BAILOUT
Canadian icon; a superstar of the imagination with a passion for the truth
"Jane Siberry is not easy. She sings about dogs, God, angels, sex and more in a multi-octave voice unhampered by considerations of gravity."
- Ian Grey, Arts Journalist
"One of those rare artists who can crack brains and break hearts at the same time."
- Don Shewey, The Village Voice
When I Was a Boy included in Top 10 Albums
- Jon Pareles, New York Times
