Son sent me this.

Out today, solo album from the woman doing more for traditional folk music than most.

I adore her voice and her approach to music. Have seen her perform twice and look forward to more opportunities to do so.

There are some amazing interpretations of traditional and or folk songs here.

I am particularly a fan of her interpretation of Dark horse on the wind, such a powerful interpretation of a classic. However there is so much to love here. Mostly this is just Radie and she shines especially on the vocal front.

Opener hares on the mountain is in part a tribute to one of her greatest musical inspirations Shirley Collins (who spent most of the 60s recording as many traditional folk songs as she could learn on her travels). The mutual admiration goes both ways, Shirely cannot say enough good things about Radie as a singer and their shared drive to keep folk music alive and relevant for future generations.

Anyway, give it a listen when you have time.
