Yasmin Williams - Acadia (2024)
Yasmin Williams’ Acadia is a tranquil and expansive exploration of fingerstyle guitar that blends folk, ambient, and jazz influences. This album, her most sonically adventurous to date, features a rich array of instrumentation including banjo, kora, and calabash drum. Collaborations with artists like Aoife O'Donovan and Immanuel Wilkins further enhance the album’s genre-defying quality. Tracks like "Cliffwalk" and "Virga" showcase Williams' intricate guitar work, combining reflective melodies with soaring arrangements. The result is a deeply immersive and serene musical journey that expands the boundaries of modern folk music(No Depression)(Nonesuch)(No Depression).
