Singer songwriter Jenee Halstead releases her 3rd album Raised by Wolves, which is a remarkable feat in improvisation – mixing traditional instruments, banjos, mandolins and ukuleles with a subtle blend of electronic blips and wheezes. ‘Raised By Wolves’ is haunting and beautiful, Halstead’s vocals are cold and clear as snow as they cut above the sparse instrumental arrangements. It’s a sign of a powerful song (let alone an entire album) when it stops you in your tracks just so you can get a good listen.
Halstead hails from the high desert of Spokane, Washington, and was raised by hippie parents. Her influences range from Medieval choral works to Dolly Parton, and more obvious references to the likes of PJ Harvey and Kate Bush (never a bad thing!). Her free spirit shines through on Raised By Wolves’. One has to wonder whether the album title was semi-autobiographical? As an album, ‘Raised by Wolves’ is eerie, almost like a spell being cast. It’s not an easy listen, but it is curious and intelligent. Halstead sings of obsessive love, loneliness, supernatural nature and all things beyond. Her silky, seductive vocals flip from being delicate and vulnerable to worldly and knowing. They go down like dark red wine, leaving the listener punch drunk. And all this is set against the delightful sparseness of the instrumentation. It’s a spooky, atmospheric and delightful album that evokes snowy, dark images of the winter months to come. What could be finer?
