Second full length release from Loisville, KT folk singer Joan Shelley. I was blown away by this album. It is simple and beautiful. This woman has an unbelievable voice that makes this record impossible for me to put down. RIYL: Sharon Van Etten, Kurt Vile, Joanie Mitchell, Shelby Lynne, Allison Krauss. FCC CLEAN!! Recommended Tracks: 1, 2, 5, 8 1. (4:50) Something Small - There is a richness to this song and a real story is being told. Love this one, such a strong start to this album. 2. (3:04) Rising Air - This one feels more twangy on the guitar. Down tempo waltz. Gorgeous. 3. (5:08) First Of August - Piano, brushes on the snare, organ notes, and of course that voice. Down tempo. 4. (3:32) River Low - Faster paced, reminds me a lot of Allison Krauss. Guitar and vocals only. 5. (2:35) Remedios - Acoustic track, banjos and ooo-ing. So so pretty. 6. (4:15) Long Way To Night - Down tempo shuffle on the drums, beautiful guitar, and a Joanie-esq vocal. 7. (4:16) Moss & Marrow - Another guitar/vox only track. 8. (4:54) Electric Ursa - This really could be a Joanie Mitchell song, holy cow. Love love this one. | ||
