Jake Wildwood – The Wood Wives

Jake Wildwood – Birch (MP3)

When I interviewed Jake about his last album he mentioned he was working on a record of songs about, “a particular tree, bush, shrub, flower, that I’ve come to know up here.” He’s now finished it and you can download the album for free on his website.

As always, it’s a lovely collection of well crafted songs. Made even more impressive by being written entirely in a single night. That’s just showing off.

    Jake’s prolific output really is quite ludicrous, especially when you also include the rate at which he churns out videos featuring the various instruments that he’s restored. And it’s far from just quantity – his songs, without exception, are beautifully well crafted. He is a rare talent.

    todd: I think even Christ would have trouble putting up with Nipper.

    J-Hob: He’s slipping. It’s been two days and he hasn’t put a new album out yet.

    Everyone: Thank you!

    Al: I’m working on it. ;)

    (No, I’m serious! I have to catch these things before they blow away in the wind, so to say!)
