I miss the Paper bird trio, but still love the new combination. And the change is a small price to play to hear Esme's voice take on new emotional explorations. It reveals the joy in her music with sounds juxtaposed, breakdowns and her own new skill on the guitar. The evolution is a profound gain for the world of music.
This. She is seriously the best songwriter in these modern times. Who is Taylor Swift??? But I also love and appreciate Esme being low key. It wouldn’t be her otherwise. Yet what you just said is so true!
Great artist ,more than the sum of her influences. Meanders seamlessly through different musical styles with a distinctive & very special singing voice.
Wow - great song + footage ~ beautiful stuff! Just literally discovered your/her music today...Portland-based now - or still in CO (I know, video footage is Alaska)?
i wrote this song first, then Shakey Graves gave me drugs and changed my song into what became "wild card" which he began to play at his shows without my consent. i had to ask him to cease and desist from playing it, as he was essentially trying to steal my song. so yeah, that's the whole story. good ear!
