Joanna Newsom

The talented elven virtuoso lands on these shores on the 14th of April for a show in the Olympia for a reasonably priced €25.20 (after the Arcade Fire debacle). There’s also rumours of a sort-of live EP to be released around that time perhaps with a rendition of traditional Scottish tune and versions of the songs from Ys with a full live band in a studio.

Ys was at number three in my top albums of 2006 and it’s still amazing me at every listen. At the moment Cosmia is my favourite track. So in anticipation here ya go..
