Album Notes & Community Reviews
Focused largely around the hammered dulcimer and zither, 'Waillee, Waillee' interprets ancient Appalachian and Celtic folk traditions through a subtly avant-garde lens. Carter's haunting, ethereal vocal delivery and acoustic textures provided an essential touchstone for the later development of the freak folk movement.
