Cool Ethereal Folk: VASHTI BUNYAN


"Just Another Diamond Day" album (1970)

VASHTI BUNYAN is an english folk singer with an ethereal voice. She recorded quite a bit in the late '60s but without getting the fame she deserved.

Recently a collection of her ahaunting work brought new ears to her timeless classics, and she has reemerged in response to all the cult attention.

Listen to this first song and see if you aren't hooked...


Vashti Bunyan -"Train Song" (1966)

And here she is now, still with us, showing us how it's done right.
