The Wailin’ Jennys - Bold Riley

From Live at the Mauch Chunk Opera House

I bought this album on Amazon yesterday for $8 or $9, and I don’t regret skipping dinner tonight to make up for it. I’ve been enjoying The Wailin’ Jennys for awhile now, and this CD is everything I love about them, but more of it with super-tight harmonies over Appalachia-tinged bluegrass/gospel. This whole CD makes me want to move out to a place in the upper-Midwest or the Northeast where the winters are harsh and the stoves burn wood and where the filaments that bind me to a suburban life orbiting a big city are loosed. And you can come too.

I’ll probably be posting more of these songs throughout the week.
