Our Take

Eliza Carthy's latest offering, "Rough Music," is a veritable smorgasbord of folk sounds and traditions, served up with a healthy dash of irreverence and wit. From the moment the album kicks off with the foot-stomping opener "Fade & Fall" to the haunting lilt of "Reedcutter's Daughter," Carthy's unique blend of traditional folk melodies and modern sensibilities keeps listeners on their toes.

The album sees Carthy collaborating with a diverse range of musicians, from seasoned veterans to up-and-coming talents, resulting in a rich tapestry of sound that is as refreshing as it is engaging. Standout tracks like "Devil in the Woman" and "Broken" showcase Carthy's powerful vocals and skilled fiddle playing, while more experimental tracks like "Jealousy" push the boundaries of traditional folk music in exciting new directions.

Overall, "Rough Music" is a triumphant return for Carthy, showcasing her knack for crafting infectious melodies and thought-provoking lyrics. Whether you're a seasoned folk aficionado or a casual listener looking for something fresh and exciting, this album is sure to delight and surprise in equal measure. So grab a pint, kick back, and let Eliza Carthy's "Rough Music" take you on a wild and wonderful musical journey.
