New music: Lonesome Lake - Tributaries EP


New Hampshire's Lonesome Lake make lovingly crafted folk music that reflects chilly and rugged landscapes in which it was created.  The songs that comprise their new Tributaries EP feature fingerpicked acoustic guitar and sparse percussion - with the occasional accordion, fiddle or horn taking turns in the spotlight.  These are songs of struggle and pain, but the end result is simply beautiful - for every whispered, reflective lyric there is a soaring melody or fiddle line to lessen the weight of the words.

The gorgeous Tributaries EP deserves attention - keep an eye on Lonesome Lake.  Get the full EP here.
