Sarah Jarosz - Undercurrent
By
Jesse E. Mullen
Really beautiful album that deals
with themes of maturation, and the difficulties that come with living in your
early 20s. The instrumentation is exquisite, and Sarah is quite gifted, playing
several of the parts herself. The vocals are excellent throughout, and fit the
somber mood of the record. Her voice is like honey on top of the lush melodies
she conjures. This album is truly a folk/alt country gem, and I believe anyone
hearing it for the first time will marvel at Jarosz' dark yet hopeful
songwriting, and clever arrangements. Growing up isn't easy, but this gives me
something to latch onto amidst the confusion of it.
Sugar Hill/2016
