Newest facination: foreign female singer-songwriters! Haruko’s “Wild Geese” being the reason
Sorry for some downtime on the blog lately, life getting in the way: Family visiting, little access to the “spare room” or “Slowcoustic Headquarters” as I know it. Also quit the day job on Friday – newly working for private business (no longer a corporate monkey) on web & marketing! Very excited. So I have stolen away for a quick blog post…
What also is exciting at the moment is the new album from Haruko “Wild Geese”. Susanne Stanglow (aka Haruko) plays a very much traditional folk – it feels pure, classic and absolutely stunning. This one is climbing up the ‘best of 2009 list’ daily…
RIYL – Alela Diane, Mariee Sioux, Sybylle Baier, etc.
Catch a couple of videos – one from the album and another of a Devendra Banhart cover.

Visit Haruko on MySpace HERE or on her label HERE.
Pick up an album on Bracken Records Here (but be prepared to pay a bit, but all worth it!).
