Paper Wings - The Woods and Fields
LCM Song of the Day: ‘The Woods and Fields’ - Paper Wings
We head to the West Coast today to meet the up and coming old-time bluegrass and folk duo of Emily Mann and Wilhelmina Frankzerda better known as Paper Wings. Our LCM featured track today is an original song ‘The Wood and Fields’ taken from their forthcoming second album ‘Clementine’ due for release on May 14th.
Paper Wings captivates their listeners with a sound that is delicate, powerful, and refreshingly intimate. The stunning vocal blend of Emily Mann and Wilhelmina Frankzerda soars over a rotating cast of banjo, guitar, and fiddles. These two blossoming songwriters have a distinctive way of weaving traditional Appalachian music in to their thoughtfully crafted songs leaving you feeling nostalgic and exhilarated. They are both exceptionally accomplished multi-instrumentalists, and walk the line between vibrant originality and a deep care for traditional music and its history. They are the 2018 recipients of "A Good Idea" fund from Australian Folk-Pop duo Oh Pep! to sponsor a week dedicated to songwriting. Paper Wings released their self-titled debut album in 2017.
