Supernatural Folk: Jessica Law, Ghostwatching

https://jessicalaw.bandcamp.com/album/ghostwatching

This album is my new find. I absolutely adore it and you should listen to it. Spooky folk songs that are so well crafted, Jessica Law should be headlining folk festivals.

Those melodies… damn she can write a melody. Those lyrics… holy crud she can write a lyric. These are excellently crafted songs- catchy, intelligent, moody. Her voice has matured and broadened, and to excellent effect. I love the sound of the mandolin, the orchestration is superbly done with lots of tasteful, subtle touches, but it’s the song crafting that really makes it. These are fabulous compositions, with just the right blend of mood, emotion and wit (Monday Morning made me laugh out loud on a bus) pulled off excellently. I honestly find this album utterly enchanting and you really should check it out right now.
