Bandcampで見つけて愛聴しているコンピレーション・シリーズ。Folkadelphiaというフィラデルフィアのラジオ番組のレーベルがCOVID-19に影響を受けているアーティストを支援する目的で編んだコンピ盤らしい。

フォークやブルーグラス等のルーツ・ミュージックからオルタナ系のシンガーソングライターまでバラエティに富んだ曲が並んでいてどれも素晴らしい。

最近は家でリラックスしたい時や読書する時によく聴いてる。アコースティックな響きが耳に心地よく、今の季節にピッタリの音楽かも。

Folkadelphia Session: Nadia Sirota and Valgeir Sigurðsson

“ Still, for our “folk-ish” radio show, it may seem odd to feature Sirota and Valgeir Sigurðsson, who produced, played on, mixed and mastered Baroque, and is also, separately, a brilliant musician and producer in his own right. To that claim, I point back to Sirota’s personal example. She succeeds in bringing all manner of art and music together to create what I consider truly modern music.” Fred Knittel 5th May 2013 http://thekey.xpn.org/2013/05/05/folkadelphia-session-nadia-sirota-and-valgeir-sigurdsson/

Glenn Jones - Folkadelphia Session, March 6, 2016

Y’all have checked out Fleeting, Glenn Jones’ latest masterpiece, right? I wrote it up over on Aquarium Drunkard a few weeks back if you still need convincing. Glenn is definitely up at the top of the heap when it comes to solo guitar (and banjo) players -- every note he plays takes you to the places you want to go. This four-song Folkadelphia session is a great add-on to Fleeting’s discrete charms (and features a guest spot from Laura Baird as well). And hey! There’s also a freshly archived Jones performance/interview from last night on Irene Trudel’s WFMU show, with a new/unreleased Fahey-tribute tune “The Giant Who Ate Himself.” Heavy.

WXPN Folkadelphia: Emma Ruth Rundle Solo Acoustic Session

On Emma Ruth Rundle‘s latest solo outing Some Heavy Ocean, she reconciles in a bold and beautiful manner her diverse musical styles and interests honed over the years while performing in groups like Marriages, Red Sparowes, and the Nocturnes. Her voice is truly the centerpiece of the album – strong, defiant, and upfront. Rundle is cast as the beacon of light in a soundscape that exists as dense fog-like endlessness. It’s a sound as attractive and with the destructive potential of a black hole. Space, outer, inner, or otherwise, plays an important role here too. The songwriter has a deep understanding of dynamics. There’s drama, there’s build, there’s tension and release. On this heavy ocean, the waves ebb and flow to create emotional peaks and valleys. All the while, Rundle gives us her monochromatic all, an infinite variety of diversity in between the black of the void and the purest white light.

While she performs alone, adorned with just voice and electric guitar, for our Folkadelphia Session, she is no less subdued. Listen to Emma Ruth Rundle’s in-studio session now.
