 | Author: Karris (L.A.) | When listening to Meg Baird (Of the great band the Espers) you are reminded more of the natural talents that came out of the folk music movement 40 - 50 years ago, before production techniques and overproduction began to distract your attention from the power of a voice to mesmerize. Meg Baird conjures up equal parts Sandy Denny and Iris DeMint in her Celtic Americana, like a modern revival of the "Song Catcher" style. In another universe she would be on stage at Country/Folk concerts with Allison Krause and Emmylou Harris,and blowing Lady Antebellum out of the water at the Grammys. | 3 |
