The sub-genre of Ambient Americana is going from strength to strength because of releases like this. Chuck Johnson's slide playing like a silvery spider web, whilst Marielle Jakobsons' voice and keyboards an ethereal cloud. What this album offers is a genuine 'deep listening' experience, as blissful, meditative and compelling as its gorgeous cover image. From the first note to the last, this is haunting, life-affirming music. Let it lift your spirit and carry you away.
