South is the fourth studio album by Heather Nova.

The US release contained one extra track, "Welcome", which also appeared on the 2005 album Redbird.

The album was recorded in London, New York, Sweden and Los Angeles and featured Bernard Butler on some of the tracks.

[1] For this album, Nova also recorded a contemporary-styled cover of the standard "Gloomy Sunday", a song originally made popular by Billie Holiday.

In retrospect, Nova found the album to be far too polished and not entirely to her liking.
