Our Take

Devon Hoff's latest album, "Voices From The Empty Moor (Songs Of Anne Briggs)," is a delightful romp through the folk music world, paying tribute to the legendary Anne Briggs in a way that only Hoff can. Known for his quirky take on traditional tunes, Hoff brings his own unique spin to each track, breathing new life into timeless classics.

From the moment the haunting vocals of "Blackwater Side" kick in, you know you're in for a wild ride. Hoff's playful instrumentation and off-kilter arrangements keep you on your toes throughout the album, never quite sure where he's going to take you next. It's like a musical rollercoaster, with unexpected twists and turns at every corner.

But don't let the whimsical nature of the music fool you - Hoff is a true master of his craft. His intricate guitar work and soulful delivery are a testament to his years of experience in the industry, and his reverence for Anne Briggs shines through in every note.

Overall, "Voices From The Empty Moor" is a charming, quirky, and utterly captivating album that is sure to delight fans of folk music and beyond. Devon Hoff may be a bit of an oddball, but his talent is undeniable. Give this album a listen - you won't be disappointed.
