Irish singer / songwriter Brigid Mae Power has shared stages with Lee Ranaldo, Alasdair Roberts, Richard Dawson, and Ryley Walker. Born in London to a big Irish family, she moved to Ireland (Galway) when she was twelve years old. In addition to the guitar, she plays accordion, baritone ukulele, piano and harmonium; creating hauntingly dreamlike soundscapes. For her self-titled album on Tompkins Square, she recorded with Peter Broderick in Oregon. It fits: her voice demands the space of such a vast, open coastline. On 'It's Clearing Now,' Power echoes the wayward yet grounded reach of Mary Margaret O'Hara or Angel Olsen circa 'Half Way Home' - warbling, gauche, meditative, utterly in control over its eight doomy, languid minutes. LP - Limited Red Vinyl.
