What We Say

If you've been checking the blog or Slow Folk playlist you'll already be well aware of Lindsay Clark, and I'm happy to report her LP for Audiosport is finally here and living up to all my lofty expectations. This really is a most enchanting folk LP, as her distinctive vocals are elevated further heavenwards by clouds of lovingly crafted, reality dissipating arrangements. Just wonderful.
