West Virginia-born, Nashville-based Sierra Ferrell has announced her much anticipated sophomore album Trail of Flowers due March 22nd from Rounder Records.
Following Long Time Coming her 2021 debut, Trail of Flowers reveals the wealth of wisdom and wild imagination behind her inimitable voice, shapeshifting sound and wondrous inner-world. Across the record’s 12 songs, Ferrell blends boldly new ideas and old-time music to tell spellbinding stories about her struggle to build a life in a culture consumed by capitalism. Between dive bar romances, murder ballads and feverish tales of fending for food, the words and emotions are informed by her nomadic and ragged upbringing, busking everywhere from truck stops to alleyways, boxcars and the streets of New Orleans with a group of young, itinerant musicians.
No stranger to Australian audiences, having toured here three times already, most lately in October 2022, when she appeared on the cover of Rhythms and headlined Out On The Weekend festival.
Along with the new album announcement, Ferrell also debuted brand new single “Dollar Bill Bar” featuring additional backing vocals from Nikki Lane and Kristen Rogers.
