Littlest Birds Sing the Prettiest Songs | Jennie Smith

1 post | 1 read

Our love affair with folk songs runs as deep as the enduring power of music, nature, creativity, and the longings of the human heart. Artist Jennie Smith celebrates the tradition with her illustrated renderings of thirteen soulful songs, including time-honored Scottish ballads, classics by the likes of the Carter Family, contemporary favorites by Gillian Welch, and more. Smith's art--hopeful, sincere, and delicate--adds an unexpected and charming dimension to a familiar genre. With a foreword from contemporary folk legend Michael Hurley, complete lyrics, and playable tablature or sheet music for each song, this is a keepsake collection for the whole family to treasure.

Littlest Birds Sing the Prettiest Songs | Jennie Smith

so-so

An Overdrive recommendation. Liked the idea of illustrating folk music. Had echo dot play some of the songs. Very short. 10? 12 songs? I like the essence of it but I did think of how I would do everything. I'm imagining June Carter Cash's Wildwood Flower cover now but was thinking about simple lemon and lime watercolors then. OK. Probably just me and my unrealistic expectations.
