Buzzbands Premieres A Song From To Emmylou

Buzzbands has premiered a song from the To Emmylou compilation released earlier this summer in tribute to Emmylou Harris. “Appropriately,” writes the site’s Kevin Bronson, “Phoebe Bridgers appears on the album. The 21-year-old, whose early work suggests the singer-songwriter as an inheritor to Harris’ legacy, takes on the 1993 paean to regret ‘Prayer in Open D,’ articulating its ‘valley of sorrow in my soul’ with chilling clarity.” Hear the song right here.

While Buzzbands chose to highlight Bridgers, the site takes care to let readers know that her song is only “one of the many highlights on the album, which features contributions from Wires in the Wall, Tall Tales and the Silver Lining, the Silver Lake Chorus, Little Red Lung, Sandbox, Ashleigh Flynn, Burning Jet Black, Feronia and Great Outwest (with Lindsay Carter Coates).” Get this amazing tribute into your rotation now.
