Cowboy Junkies' 'Open to Beauty' is a collection of songs from their 21st century albums to date. This ‘Best Of’ set revisits selected tracks from albums 'Open', 'One Soul Now', 'Early 21st Century Blues', 'At The End of Paths Taken', 'Renmin Park', 'Demons', 'Sing In My Meadow', 'The Wilderness', 'All That Reckoning', 'Songs of the Recollection', and 'Such Ferocious Beauty'.
Speaking about the new collection, Cowboy Junkies’ Michael Timmins said: “We are now 25 years into this century, the beginning of which saw us leave the world of major labels and return to making music as an independent band. We figured this was as good a time as any to look back, reassess, and reflect on the music that we have recorded over these past two and a half decades and, hence, 'Open to Beauty - The Best of the 21st Century'.” The enduring power of Cowboy Junkies’ music was in evidence recently when their signature performance of Lou Reed's 'Sweet Jane' was featured in the final episode of the Netflix TV series Stranger Things.
