Have been really enjoying this album from Anna B Savage, "You & i are earth"
Just about every song is great but I'll share this one, "Agnes," which gets bonus points for having a really green, verdant, slightly weird video:

It's actually quite a bit more uptempo than a lot of the other tunes, which are slower, almost meditative, with some really beautiful acoustic-leaning arrangements to match her exceptional voice
Maybe file under "If you dig...
Feist
Weather Station
Cassandra Jenkins
I'm sure I'll think of more soon...
What is the power of a really good song?
Take the following words:
You are my music
You are my muse
I'll sing for hours
And write an album of you
Sweet but, when on the page, kind of boring and flat, maybe even a little corny.
But in Savage's "Mo Cheol Thú" --- they work absolute magic.
Watching this set now, which opens with that one, and the arrangement is spectacular, just wonderful development of everything leading up to the final sounding of that chorus.
