LAURA VEIRS


LAURA VEIRS
THE TRIUMPHS & TRAVAILS
OF ORPHAN MAE (2005)
320 KBPS

Originally released in 2001 on Laura's own imprint, Raven Marching Band, "The Triumphs" is a semi-autobiographical, epic musical saga of a young woman traveling the old American west. Mixing Americana with electronic effects and modern percussion, Veirs has created a sparse and haunting record with a clear and original vision.
