Apple Blossom
This past Sunday, I was in Chicago, playing in Midwest Nest Fest. The venue was Fish + Fowl, which is an absolutely darling apartment in downtown Chicago, run by Emily Jane Powers, Adie Janci, and Carol. I didn’t meet Carol, but I assume that she is as nice as Emily and Adie were. At the show, they provided free Mimosas for anyone who wanted one, and anything else you wanted, I’m sure they would have made sure you had it. Alongside me, Erin Day, Heligoats, and Emily Jane Powers all played. Everyone did a swell job, but Emily was fabulous! And she is the featured artist of this post. However, please check out those other folks too!
Emily Jane Powers is from Chicago, via Ann Arbor, MI. She writes folk-pop songs that are decidedly lo-fi, but in a very nice, calculated manner. However, this is not your average lo-fi female acoustic folk artist. She plays the guitar, banjo, violin, percussion, bells, organ, and probably more on this album. She has a beautiful voice, too. This MP3 I am posting is from her album “Apple Blossom”, which overall is a brilliant album. If you like this song, you can buy the album from her website for a mere $5, and I assure you, it is worth far more than that.
