The Wailin' Jennys || The Attic Sessions

Музыка

0:20 "Glory Bound"
5:41 "Wildflowers"
Starting as a happy accident of solo singer/songwriters getting together for a one-time-only performance at a tiny guitar shop, The Wailin’ Jennys have grown over the years into one of today’s most beloved international folk acts. Founding members Ruth Moody and Nicky Mehta along with New York-based Heather Masse continue to create some of the most exciting music on the folk-roots scene. The trio stopped by War Memorial Auditorium’s historic Attic Lounge to play some songs off of their most recent album, “Fifteen”, and discuss everything from bringing their music to the US to keeping folk music relevant in world where pop rules the charts.

    I just saw them live a few days ago! Their voices are SO heavenly live! Far more so than their recordings! If y'all have a chance to see them live, I highly recommend it! I love how this video features my father's favorite song they performed (Glory Bound) and mine (Wildflowers)!

    this really isn't country, it's follk. the song apparently was written by tom petty (of rock and roll but with country roots). His version comes across a lot differently. the jennys pretty much made a major it out of it. and the reference to aiofe o'donovan. when I first heard this interview I did not know who that was. she pronounces it "EEFE" (probably irish) and she is a music act to behold in her own right, also to be found on YT
