Joanna Newsom – Inflammatory Writ

This article is dedicated to Ryan♥M because he has limited internet
access and I know he loves Joanna Newsom. I believe he will be covering
the Green Man Festival (unlike the excellent Glastonbury 2007 Coverage, he will actually physically be at the Green Man).

So, what makes Newsom stands out in her contemporary musicians is that she
has a gigantic Lyon & Healy style 15 harp.

You can probably guess that, although she’s a harpist, her style is not traditional harp music.

Anyway, I will
include the first song I’ve heard from her called “Inflammatory Writ”,
which has a dash of a Dolly Parton-esque vocals with some very strange
lyrics over piano notes.

She has a fourth album called Ys
(pronounced ‘ees’) which was released last year, but I don’t have. From
the samples that I’ve heard here and there, Ys sounds pretty good.

If you’re wondering, “fourth album?”, that’s because she’s self-released two full lengths prior to signing to Drag City.

Here are more audio from other voxers:
