American singer-songwriter known for indie-folk recordings since the late 1990s, with albums such as Carbon Glacier, Year of Meteors and Saltbreakers.

Saltbreakers was released on Nonesuch. Veirs has released multiple indie/folk albums and appears on the collaborative project Case/Lang/Veirs.

Hal's DeBaser review finds Saltbreakers musically polished but emotionally restrained. The reviewer praises arrangements and production yet calls the album predictable and lacking courage. Rating given: 2/5.

For:Listeners of indie folk, Laura Veirs fans, music critics interested in production and songwriting

 Like an elaborate dish of elegant nouvelle cousine, but bland, like a red sunset overshadowed by a menacing cloud, like half a kiss given and not given, like a blurry photo, like a beautiful dress that falls badly, like a fresh beer, but evaporated, like a stopped Swiss watch, like a vintage Barolo corked... and one could go on forever.
