Jesse Mullen
How do I pick just one? This record is loaded with gorgeous melodies, open turnings, and warm hazy vocal arrangements. Ellen Kempner is a genius. Right now, "Healthier Folk," "Molly," The Title cut, and the sleepily soothing "Seekonk," (which perfectly demonstrates the loneliness and boredom experienced when visiting the Massachusetts town of the same name), but I feel like over time "Dixie" will emerge as the real winner, with it's finger-picked melody, and mock-gag.
Favorite track: Dixie.
