Bloom Again by Allie Jean
Bloom Again is a collection of songs with themes of renewal, perseverance, hope, and resistance. All songs were recorded in my home studio, which I built with support from my Patrons!
I multi-tracked some songs to sound like a full band is playing, while others are just me singing with an instrument. You'll hear a variety of instruments, including 3 guitars, 5 banjos, upright bass, mandolin, and fiddle. You'll hear some familiar favorite songs, some classics with new words or instrumentation, a couple surprising covers, and a few originals also.
Songs include:
Across the Great Divide (Kate Wolf)
As Time Draws Near (Tommy Jarrell)
Bloom Again (Tommy Jarrell; new words by me)
Burden Down (Mississippi John Hurt; new words by me)
Get On Board, Cindy (Fisk Jubilee Singers, Samantha Bumgarner)
Golden Shovel (Kat Calabrese, me)
I Feel the Earth Move (Carole King)
I've Endured (Ola Belle Reed)
Starry Crown (Woodie Brothers)
Swannanoa (me)
Things Are Coming My Way (Bessie Jones)
Uncloudy Day
Wildflowers (Dolly Parton)
Wildwood Flower (Sara and Maybelle Carter)
