03 Real Deal

The friends are Anaïs Mitchell and Jefferson Hamer, two songwriters who co- arranged a selection of epic old folk songs from across the Atlantic for their current release Child Ballads. For Mitchell, this recording comes on the heels of 2010’s Hadestown and 2012’s Young Man in America. Both albums are big on story; the first is a folk opera, while the second was described by the Independent on Sunday as ‘an epic tale of American becoming’. Hamer began his career with the Colorado roots rock band Great American Taxi, but moved to New York in 2008 to pursue songwriting and a passion for Irish traditional music.

Mitchell and Hamer quickly discovered their shared love of Celtic and British Isles ballads, especially the classic folk albums of the 1970s – Martin Carthy’s Crown of Horn, Nic Jones’ Penguin Eggs, Andy Irvine & Paul Brady - and made a plan to arrange and record some of their favorites together. But what began as a whimsical side project evolved into a serious collaborative endeavor spanning several years, three separate recording attempts, and a whole lot of cutting room floor as the pair navigated their way through a centuries old tradition.

Anais Mitchell & Jefferson Hamer Final

"Like a fine wine, Hilary Scott's tremendous vocal
       skill continues to evolve leaving her fans worldwide in awe. This
       beautiful young lady has toured throughout the globe and has been  
       awarded accolades and support from far and near.   Now, with the
       release of "Still", Hilary Scott And The New County Line, show us yet
       another side of their incredible talent. This EP has 5 delicious songs
       that take you on a journey through music. Though Hilary Scott is an
       exceptional songwriter, I believe she has progressed into a master
       storyteller as well. "Still" takes us through emotions like the colors in a
       kaleidoscope. Her powerful voice is strong, yet sultry and sexy. She
       shows her softer side with lilting ballads like Untitled (So Long),
       Fighting Odds (Take What You Get) and of course the title track, Still.    
      Like leather and lace, Hilary Scott has it all going on. "
