Margo Cilker

Margo Cilker has announced Little White Cross, her third album and first release on Fossil Records, due October 9th. Recorded to tape in Lockhart, Texas, with Bruce Robison, it follows the widely acclaimed Valley of Heart’s Delight. The title track — a Christy Hays cover — is out now, its stark roadside imagery setting the tone for an album born out of darkness.

With her 2021 debut, Pohorylle, Margo Cilker set herself a high benchmark, but with ‘Valley of Heart’s Delight’, she’s cleared that with ease and guaranteed another set of Album of the Year votes.

Margo Cilker’s taken her time readying this grander entrance onto the Americana stage. Pohorylle is one of the year’s finest debuts, that stage is hers for the taking.
