“For now, what I hear is a man who spent his whole life trying to express himself in song, and in this particular instance, he was faced with a very uncertain future fraught with fear and loneliness and all kinds of things, and I see a guy who’s pretty reconciled and at peace, and that gives me a lot of peace as well.”
In a special interview, Patrick Downie, brother of The Tragically Hip's Gord Downie, sits down with The Journal's Arts Editor, Nathan Gallager, to talk about his late brother's new, final album, "Away is Mine." Patrick discusses watching Gord create the album after his diagnosis, producing it after Gord's passing, and his connection to his brother's final piece of work.
