My Woman: Angel Olsen

My Woman

Angel Olsen

Jagjaguwar

In 2010, Angel Olsen began her recording career with a six song EP of gorgeously lush sounding, yet stripped down and raw folk music. In the ensuing six years, Olsen’s sound has gradually made the transition from acoustic to electric and filled out with full band arrangements. Even with all of the production and polish on her third album, My Woman, Olsen’s songs never lose the edge that made her so captivating to begin with. Her bold, bluesy voice pours like thick honey from the speakers, and even when the songs are more mellow or subdued they sound sharp and to the point.
