As Derek pointed out, Joanna is very much in the Marmite camp, you either love her style or you hate it.
Her vocals rub shoulders with that of CocoRosie, and her harp playing is of her own world.
The “Milk-Eyed Mender” is a good way to get to know Joanne, as her 2006 album “Ys” is a much more serious affair with long orchestrated storytelling tracks.
Not for the lazy listener.
Great stuff.
