Sharon Van Etten just released her album entitled Epic. I am one for good folk/singer song-writer type. Sharon fits right into that mold. I heard a little from her on various blogs, but just listened to "Love More," from Epic. Great song. However, listening to Sharon reminded me of another folk/singer song-writer: Jessica Lea Mayfield. Although not identical in the way they sing, they are clearly both going to battle it out in this genre for a while. Jessica came out with one of the best albums of 2008 and one of my favorites, in With Blasphemy So Heartfelt. I expect that Jessica will release some new material in the coming year. I truly hope she does. Sharon is getting incredible praise for her album Epic and it's a perfect time for Jessica to bring out her best as well. I am looking forward to these two furthering their careers. They have the talent. Here are a few songs from each.
