Weaver, Jane - Like an Aspen Leaf

Originally released in 2002, Like An Aspen Leaf is a breathtaking, smoky folk opus spiked with Americana longing.

Nuanced with the help of members of Elbow, Voice Of The Seven Woods and Andy Votel, it emanates from a baroque pop netherworld, soundtracked by songs of regret, pinpricked by evocative melodies and sumptuous harmonies, and peppered with plaintive swathes of cello and a suitably meandering piano that lurks behind Jane’s minor chords.

Now remastered for the modern age, Like An Aspen Leaf is a bewitching seven-song set filled with aching melancholy.

“These are urban poems, reflecting frailties in urban landscapes and finding great passions hiding between the lines of everyday conversation” The Guardian
