Maria Doyle Kennedy's album, Mutter, was a collection of ghost songs, avant-folk songs, eerie fairy tales and cinematic snapshots of bedraggled actresses walking barefoot on Mulholland Drive. It was also one of the most bewitching records of 2007. Her most recent release, The Storms Are On the Ocean, might well have been named "Grand" Mutter. Perhaps one of the singer/songwriter's more haunting releases, Kennedy's album highlights courtly tunes, murder ballads, child ballads and death fugues, all beautifully backlit by her husband Kieran Kennedy's acoustic guitar, banjo and piano.Description from last.fm.
