The Mile End Sessions is the seventh album by solo artist David Usher. It was released on September 14, 2010 and is composed mostly of previously released songs re-recorded in acoustic arrangements. There were two singles released off the record. [1]

Overview

The record was produced by Jonathan Gallivan, who also plays guitar on the album. The album also includes a French track that features Marie-Mai called "Je repars", which is Usher's first French-language recording. It was the first single from the album and charted in the top 10 in Québec.[2] The other new songs on the album are "Fall To Pieces" and "Sparkle And Shine".

Usher has said that the album title "is a nod to my neighbourhood in Montréal — Mile End... where these songs were re-shaped and where much of the album was made."[3]
