Another acoustic disc for the #zot2017 review

Mark Olson - Spokeswoman of the Bright Sun (Glitterhouse, January 09, 2017)

"Spokeswoman of the Bright Sun" is the second album by Mark Olson (Jayhawks) created in collaboration with his partner and multi-instrumentalist Ingunn Ringvold, who specializes in playing the Armenian qanun and also plays keyboards, djembe, guitars, and dulcimer on the album. The recording sessions took place right at Mark's home in the Joshua Tree desert: Danny Frenkel played drums and Lewis Keller played bass. The album (mixed by John Schreine) was released on Glitterhouse last January: it is a collection of ten loosely psychedelic folk songs that are very simple and essentially based on the combination of the two voices and the sound of the acoustic guitar. It is a work that is not particularly ambitious and, as such, does not deserve special attention.
