Cara Luft: new album 'Darlingford'

cara, luft, darlingford,

Canadian singer/songwriter, Cara Luft, releases her new solo album 'Darlingford' this month. Formerly of The Wailin' Jennys and regular visitor to these shores, Cara is equally well versed in traditional English balladry and the music of the Mississippi Delta and the Appalachian Hills. Critics have drawn comparisons to Julie Miller, June Tabor, Gillian Welch, Linda Thompson and even Brit folk-rockers Pentangle.

Critics and fans alike are eagerly awaiting the release of Cara’s upcoming new solo album, Darlingford, in 2012. The album was recorded in old churches, living rooms and home studios across Canada during 2011, and includes an all-star cast of guest musicians. The project once again captures Cara’s prowess as a songwriter, singer and instrumentalist.

Here's a live version of the opening track:
