Post Description
Natalie Jane Hill's new album is a thing of rare beauty. 9/10
Originally from Wimberley, Hill spent a few years in Georgia and North Carolina before moving to San Marcos a couple of years ago. “Solely,” her second album in as many years, is a thing of rare beauty — 10 enchanting folk songs set to minimal acoustic arrangements built around the guilelessly soothing tone of Hill’s voice.
In the face of a macro world, Hill goes micro, finding wonder in little visions like the web a spider spins: “Mighty and small, she spins her bed/ And the strands they shimmer with wind/ And I feel better, more than I ever did,” she sings on “Orb Weaver.” Echoes of half-century-old British folk masters Nick Drake and Sandy Denny float by on “Little Teeth,” with graceful touches of producer Jason Chronis’ vibraphone and key contributor Mat Davidson’s fiddle framing Hill’s pastoral observations: “The pearly white buds are falling from the sky/ Shaped like little teeth in the water floating by.”
