Dorthia Cottrell steps out of the din of her doom metal band, Richmond Virginia’s Windhand, to stroll the subtle climes of folk and Americana for her self-titled debut solo album (March 3)
Her take on Gram Parson’s “Song For You” (hear below) is a daring choice, and she pulls it off beautifully. A single, simple acoustic guitar strummed around her heart-breakingly expressive voice she gives Gram’s treasure a new lustre.
“Song For You,” a cover of Townes Van Zandt’s “Rake” and 8 originals comprise the album.
