In my opinion, Patty Griffin's debut album was the most powerful folk album to come out in the modern folk era. It's an album composed almost entirely of simple chords on a lone guitar and Patty's unparallaled voice. Even though it's a concept that should have run its course by 1970, it sounds downright revolutionary.
So I was really excited to hear a track from her upcoming release this morning on Acoustic Sunrise. Judging by the song I heard, the new album (called Children Running Through, available Feb. 6) is less spare but no less powerful. Listen to the new track, "Heavenly Day," at Griffin's MySpace page.
