Description
The Unceremonious Junking Of Me is an album full of sweet sounding love songs and death ballads steeped in old world charm and the dark folk music of yesteryear. Recorded live to 1 ½ inch tape by Myles Mumford (Rolling Stock Recording Rooms) over three sessions in Ballarat’s historical Main Bar, the album maintains a raw fragility reminiscent of evenings Hollick has spent singing on the porch of her country home. The accompaniment from Kat Mear (of Cash Savage and the Last Drinks) on fiddle and Pete Fidler (Bill Jackson, Bluestone Junction) on dobro and mandolin, sheds light on Hollicks inspirations drawn from Appalachian, cajun and early blues recordings.
