She describes it as "organic moonshine roots music". Whatever sort of blend of blues, gospel, country soul, bluegrass, folk and more it may be, I can't get enough at the moment. Ranging from quaint to soothing to riveting only begins to describe the unique quality of June's sound. Fine backing music on the album, too. I first came upon June when she was featured on Me'Shell Ndegeocello's superb 2012 Nina Simone tribute album, and was mesmerized.
My only quibble is that, like 90% of modern fare -- excepting most jazz and classical -- the album is regrettably engineered to compress its dynamic range, coming up at an average of only DR7 on my meter.
Can't stop now:
Not yet, either:
Bring it on:
A little collaboration:
Some conversation:
Enough of this. Gotta get back to hearing the album
right with the headphones and my main amp ...
