Half Way Home
Angel Olsen
Sparse folk arrangements paired with haunting vocals build an atmosphere of profound closeness. The songwriting probes themes of loneliness and longing, centered by a voice that bears the burden of many tales.
This release displays a writer finding her voice, mixing traditional folk patterns with an experimental modern feeling. It is a quiet and strong debut that established a career defined by artistic growth and emotional range.
