After a long hiatus, Iris Dement is back on the road to share her unique and striking sound with us again. Her pure, evocative vocal style and spare, heartfelt songs tell introspective stories about life experiences with simplicity and grace—tackling subject matter encompassing politics, religion and personal issues. She has made frequent appearances on Garrison Keillor's A Prairie Home Companion, and sung with such stars as Emmylou Harris.

Plainly beautiful, Iris DeMent's voice has the high country clarity rarely heard these days… Her songs exert an insinuating pull, wrapping the listener first in gossamer, then binding with emotional force. – Rolling Stone
