Nora Guthrie invited musicians to interpret her father's vast collection of writing. The result breathes fresh life into these folk lyrics.
The sessions capture the raw energy of the late nineties alternative scene meeting tradition. The production feels lived-in, grounding the words in a warm, acoustic sound that feels both nostalgic and vital.
