Marisa Anderson - Traditional and Public Domain Songs

Marisa Anderson's fourth album, originally released on Grapefruit Records in a very limited edition and reissued by Mississippi Records in 2017 with two new tracks, is a masterpiece of experimental folk guitar, and one of her most beloved albums. 
 
On first glance of the track listing you may feel like you've heard it all before - classic folk songs and anthems - but in Anderson's hands, these tunes become something entirely new, frenetic and passionate.
