Album Notes & Community Reviews

Produced by Anton Fier, the eccentric Louisiana-born songwriter debuted with a wonderfully idiosyncratic blend of rural Americana and lush pop-rock. 'Happy Come Home' is heavily defined by Williams's distinctive, quavering vocal delivery and deeply quirky, observational lyricism. The record earned her massive critical acclaim and established her as a beloved, highly original voice within the alt-country community.
