'Let the Soil Play Its Simple Part' is an album of songs written and performed by Caroline Shaw and Sō Percussion. With Shaw on vocals and Sō filling out this new band, they developed songs in the studio, with lyrics inspired by their own wide-ranging interests: James Joyce, the Sacred Harp hymnal, a poem by Anne Carson, the Bible’s Book of Ruth, the American roots tune “I’ll Fly Away,” the pop music of ABBA, and more.

There's nothing better than when a really experimental song completely takes over you and resonates with you on the first listen. This is so beautiful, I'm going to keep listening to what Caroline puts out

Just magical and sublime,Caroline's voice is so stunning,I have just ordered the album and can' wait for it to arrive. I hope to see her and the group live soon. I love the fusion of electronica and traditional allowing Caroline's vocals to soar and glide over it. So so good.(matt)

The music, with its original instrumentation, was wonderful. Until the voice samplers started.
