Becoming a parent has a habit of changing one's outlook on life, and on the surface that would certainly seem to be the case with Laura
Veirs. The 38 year-old songstress has always shown herself capable of excelling in the art of pastoral folk loveliness, but becoming a mother for the first time has led her to a style that fits her talents perfectly. If you've not already gathered,
Tumble Bee is, as it's sleeve states, an album of folk covers for children, and although it sees
Veirs embarking on new musical ground the impression you get while listening is that few artists currently in action would make a better fist of such a niche.
