Jolie Holland – Pint of Blood (2011)

Texas-born Jolie Holland has never recaptured the magic of early, trad-heavy albums, but she remains a distinctive voice in modern Americana. Her southern drawl can be weary, sultry or jaunty, she can slur like Tom Waits, and on Townes Van Zandt's "Rex's Blues" (a solitary cover) she's more Billie Holiday than country singer. This fifth outing has a loose, home-studio feel with a touch of twang (Marc Ribot is here). Holland gets intense on songs of dark betrayal ("All Those Girls" and "Wreckage") while lightening up for "June" and a reprise of her Be Good Tanyas-era theme song, "Littlest Birds". A delight. - Guardian
