We look back at Anna and Elizabeth’s groundbreaking self-titled album, to be released on vinyl for the first time on its Tenth Anniversary – “a rare album that is as intimate as it is ambitious and as idiosyncratic as it is reverential.”

Part One of our Best Folk Albums of 2018 includes Brigid Mae Power, Anna & Elizabeth, Aidan O’Rourke, Eamon O’Leary, Buck Curran, Cath & Phil Tyler, Dom Flemons, Kitty Macfarlane, Mike Vass, Toby Hay, Duncan Chisholm and more.

Stick in the Wheel have shared the video for ‘In the Morning’ which features Anna Roberts-Gevalt of Anna and Elizabeth. The track features on their new mixtape release ‘THIS AND THE MEMORY OF THIS’ which is out now. 

Anna and Elizabeth are curators of a rich and varied musical tradition, of which change and growth is also an important part. This willingness to experiment has helped produce a piece of work that, if there is any justice in the world, will be recognised as one of the groundbreaking American folk albums of this century.   

In our latest Folk Show, we open with a Folk Radio UK session from Gregory Alan Isakov. Plus new music from Naomi Bedford and Paul Simmonds, Emily Mure, Laura Baird, Josh Ritter, Shake the Chains and more.

Anna and Elizabeth announce UK & Ireland tour dates. Their new album is due to be released in 2018, read about the inspiration behind the album which explores songs from their rural Virginia and Vermont homes.

For their latest single, old-time duo Anna & Elizabeth stretch their wings as they shift into the avant-garde with Hop High / Here in the Vineyard. This set takes the minimalist approach of their previous work and moves into the avant-garde, into a present-day space outside the museum where these stories live, breathe, and grow.

Our Song of the Day comes via folk duo Anna & Elizabeth with a new video for Orfeo featuring beautiful shadow puppets. It was filmed at New York’s Jalopy Theatre which promotes and support traditional roots music.

How’s this for a treat, the wonderfully talented Appalachian duo Anna and Elizabeth performing the traditional folk song ‘Don’t Want to Die in the Storm’ alongside the legendary folk singer Alice Gerrard.

For a record steeped so long in the history of mountain music, Anna And Elizabeth is unexpectedly and endlessly varied. This is a rare album that is as intimate as it is ambitious and as idiosyncratic as it is reverential.
