Jolie Holland at The MusicianDate: Wed 8th Jul Time: 20:00 Wed 8 Jolie Holland £8adv £10otd plus Herman Düne, Mountaintop Junkshop and The Kirkland Turn joliehollandmusic.com hermandune.com facebook.com/mountaintopjunkshop thekirklandturn.blogspot.co.uk Over the span of her career, Jolie Holland has knotted together a century of American song - jazz, blues, soul, rock and roll - into some stew that is impossible to categorize with any conventional critical terminology. This is her burden and her gift, to know all of these American songs of the last ten decades in her head and her heart, and to have to wrestle with their legacy. She dives straight to the pathos of a song the way the very greatest singers, singers like Mavis Staples, or Al Green, or Skip James, or Tom Waits do. Holland has always embodied everything weird and wonderful in the history of American music, but her latest album Wine Dark Sea takes it to a new level. Raw and unrestrained, bristling with kinetic energy, Wine Dark Sea is unlike anything she’s ever recorded, but is also the purest and most assured evocation of Holland's vision to date.
