    While her singing remains strong and she is emoting about issues close to her, these tracks would benefit from more musical muscle. Regardless, even if Total Freedom isn’t her finest work, it’s encouraging that Edwards has returned to releasing new material and doing what she does best.

Although I don't think Total Freedom is her strongest work - that honor still goes to "Asking For Flowers" - it's definitely the sound of a singer/songwriter who feels comfortable in her own skin again. Hopefully we won't have to wait another eight years for a new record, because the world needs Kathleen Edwards songs in it. Full Review »
