Set List Sunday Favorite

In this edition of Set List Sunday Favorite, Sarah Jarosz's music has defined the whole of this week.  The best summary of Sarah Jarosz's background is actually the most well received post for the week - Sarah Jarosz iTunes Collection.

Sarah Jarosz is a young talent (she will be 28 years old in May) with a long and successful road ahead of her.  She defines the Bluegrass, Folk, Country Folk, and Americana genres with a fresh and modern take.  I find Bluegrass, Folk, Country Folk, and Americana to be as specific in genre interest as Country Music.  Of course, Country Music has a dedicated awards ceremony and Sarah has been nominated three times and won twice at the Grammy Awards, so.

Tell Me True on YouTube, Run Away on YouTube, and Dark Road on YouTube created a three-way tie as favorites this week.

With this said, there is one last song and album worth consideration - "House of Mercy" on Undercurrent.

Undercurrent is Sarah Jarosz's fourth studio album, released in 2016.  Success - 2016 Grammy for Best Folk Album, one nomination.

"House of Mercy" - Third track out of 11 on Undercurrent.  Success - 2017 Grammy for Best American Roots Performance.

On this Set List Sunday Favorite, enjoy "House of Mercy" below.
