USA, 2013, chamber folk / indie folk
Mutual Benefit – Love’s Crushing Diamond: If you’ve ever spent a day on the river, this album is what that day feels like. I grew up on the Mississippi, sailing and swimming and fishing. Lazy summer days where the only agenda is to have a good time. Have a nice day without reference to anything outside your experience. Drift along and enjoy life, and in the drifting, learn something about yourself. Learn that you weren’t meant to be afraid. Embrace the beautiful lack of memory of the river.

Lovely, ethereal, and for some reason, for me a very wintry album. Cold blowing outside, with crystalline shapes in the snowflakes that fall so softly that they quiet all other sounds…
