So elegant! Such a good voice! So confident! So complex!
Who am I talking about? None other than the amazing Joanna Newsom.
She just released her third album, “Have One On Me,” and, as my friend put it, you’d have to listen to this album about a thousand times to fully grasp her ideas and her lyrics. With that kind of depth, what’s not to like?
New York Times Magazine published a huge article this sunday about her and how awesome she is. Read the article, written by Jody Rosen, the music critic for Slate, here.
So listen to her new album, and stay busy for the next few days with Newsom’s harp, piano, beautiful voice and engaging lyrics floating through your head.
