Pearl Street

The avatar of "spoke folk" shines brilliantly, again proving herself to be one of the most original and significant singer songwriters of her generation.

Just the lyrics of Pearl Street, taken alone at face value, are priceless, worthy of the closest scrutiny and study. Annie's vision and synthesis of her world's elements are as unique to her as is her expression of them. On the one hand, the lyrics are the core of this work, but they are also just the beginning.

Much more than a superlative song poet and instrumentalist, Gallup consistently makes incredible records. This is the furthest out of her recordings to date, and the hand with which she pushes the envelope is very sure, and it’s right.
