Sam Amidon

The album, which Amidon considersthe fullest realization to date of his artistic vision, comprises arrangements of nine mostly traditional folk songs, performed by Amidon and his band of longtime friends and collaborators. Amidon produced the record, applying the sonic experiences of his 2017 The Following Mountan, into these beloved tunes, many of which he first learned as a child."Pretty Polly, "for example, was one of the first traditional tunes he learned to play, and "Time Has Made a Change" is a song that his parents-singers who were on the 1977 Nonesuch recording Rivers of Delight with the Word of Mouth Chorus-sang around the house when he was young.
