Our Take

Laura Veirs' latest offering, "The Triumphs and Travails of Orphan Mae," is a delightful exploration of folk music that is both whimsical and introspective. Veirs' unique vocals invite listeners into a world of enchantment, where each track tells a story that is both familiar and new. From the opening notes of "Freedom Feeling," it is clear that Veirs has a knack for blending traditional folk melodies with modern sensibilities. The instrumentation on tracks like "Another Space and Time" and "Canyon' border on experimental, adding a layer of complexity to Veirs' already rich sound. However, it is Veirs' lyrical prowess that truly sets her apart. On tracks like "Burn Too Bright," she weaves tales of love and loss with poetic precision, drawing listeners in with every word. The haunting beauty of "All the Things," with its melancholic melodies and haunting harmonies, is a true standout on the album. Overall, "The Triumphs and Travails of Orphan Mae" is a triumph for Laura Veirs, showcasing her incredible talent as a songwriter and musician. Fans of folk music and storytelling will undoubtedly find much to love in this enchanting album. So grab your headphones, pour yourself a cup of tea, and let Veirs' music transport you to a world of magic and wonder. You won't be disappointed.
