Mega aanrader!!!!!!! Komt ook nooit meer iets nieuws van hem, hij overleed vorig jaar januari.

Because of the timing, Whispers and Sighs is always going to be seen as David Olney's swan song, despite no indication it was ever anything of the kind. Moreso, it feels like the passing of a torch. No songwriter is ever going to match David Olney's ability to craft folk songs about Greek mythology or Romantic era tragedies and make them accessible enough to play in a beer hall. But in Anana Kaye and Irakli Gabriel, Olney may have found the pair most willing to give it a try.

On Whispers and Sighs, David Olney and Anana Kaye craft a journey that amounts to far more than just another Americana album. This is to be expected with Olney, an acclaimed songwriter responsible for more than 20 solo albums and songs covered by and/or co-written with the likes of Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle, and Linda Ronstadt, among others. Further, just as Townes Van Zandt reportedly saw something special in him, Olney felt a similar kinship towards Kaye, a smoky-voiced Americana darling whose star is on the rise in Nashville, and her husband and musical partner Irakli Gabriel, both of whom are originally from the country of Georgia.

And while it’s hard to escape the seeming cosmic significance of the album as a posthumous Olney release, within it is an undeniable reminder that David Olney’s extraordinary legacy can never fade, while Anana Kaye’s star grows deservedly brighter by the day.
