Marisa Anderson - Traditional and Public Domain Songs

Marisa Anderson continues her streak of amazing solo guitar LP's. Originally released on Grapefruit records in a very limited edition; Mississippi Records have reissued here with two new tracks.

On first glance of the track listing you may feel like you've heard it all before - classic folk songs and anthems - but trust me, Marisa takes these tunes to places they have never been. The vibe is heavy on this one, reminiscent of a frenetic and passionate Dirty Three; the guitar playing is beautiful at points and intense at others - not for the faint of heart.
