Doug Paisley favors understatement. Witness his description of his new record, Strong Feelings, which he says is, “just 10 new songs.” While that’s true, the suite of tunes comprising the Canadian’s songwriter’s latest are by far his most musically rich and adventurous, featuring a terrific backing band and guest players, including the Band’s Garth Hudson. Despite the newly muscular sound, the record retains the warm intimacy and subtly rendered observations on love and life that characterized his earlier works. Paisley plays Signal Kitchen in Burlington this Monday, April 28.
