,: Offering a deep-hued kaleidoscope of dusty æ70s cinema, æ90s :,
: country music, and breezy West Coast psychedelia, Jess :
:' WilliamsonÆs Sorceress weaves a womanÆs wild love letters to a ':
,: confusing present and uncertain futureùwith reflections on :,
: femininity and the pursuit of perfection, New Age beliefs and :
:' practices, critiques of capitalism and social media, southern ':
,: and western landscapes (and the birds who inhabit the skies of :,
: each), and intimate details of the lives and deaths of loved :
:' ones and friends. ItÆs a record about loss of innocence and ':
,: acquired wisdom thatÆs self-critical, self-assured, and :,
: soul-searching. :
:' ':
,: Across eleven country western prayers and pop incantations, :,
: Williamson melds the magical with the day-to-day, and makes it :
:' feel universal. On the title track, a gorgeous fireside ballad ':
,: that finds her accompanied by the chirps of cicadas, she sings :,
: ôYes, thereÆs a little magic in my hat / But IÆm no sorceress.ö :
:' The thing is, she certainly sounds like one. ':
,: :,
: :
:' Sorceress is polished and assured and it hits immediatelyùlike ':
,: a modern classic should. It does fit with her previous work, but :,
: it then goes miles beyond it. From her first home recordings :
:' that bled into her proper 2014 debut Native State, WilliamsonÆs ':
,: music has kept a ragged folk energy at its core. The Texas :,
: singer and songwriter makes deeply felt songs that orbit around :
:' her powerful voice, a voice thatÆs strong and vulnerable, ':
,: big-room flawless, quietly ecstatic, and next-to-you intimate. :,
: When she has something to say, even when itÆs a kind of Dolly :
:' Parton whisper, you listen. ':
,: :,
: WilliamsonÆs fourth album and second with Mexican Summer, :
:' Sorceress was written in Los Angeles, recorded at GaryÆs ':
,: Electric in Brooklyn, and then finished at Dandy Sounds, a home :,
: studio on a ranch in Dripping Springs, Texas, where she recorded :
:' all of 2018Æs Cosmic Wink. While sheÆs stayed true to her deep ':
,: country roots, the music has grown in its ambitions. The shift :,
: happened incrementally, though without skipping a step, so like :
:' the rest of what Williamson does, it feels perfectly natural ':
,: and true. Because of that honesty, even though the complex, :,
: multi-layered music on Sorceress is so different from where she :
:' started, you can still feel everything sheÆs done previously ':
,: breathing contentedly in its shadows. :,
