What began as k.d. lang's controversial, if slightly campy, romp through country music's hallowed halls has since seen the singer appropriate every musical genre available — and, in turn, create something entirely her own. Torch songs, pop ballads, and vocal jazz have all fed lang's omnivorous talent, garnering her a somewhat cultish (and entirely deserved) following that's constantly craving her unique sound. After eight years of exploring other songwriters' work, lang returned in 2008 with Watershed, her appropriately titled ninth album of original material. More than a couple of numbers from the critically acclaimed album are part of the treat tonight.
