About

"July Flame" is American singer-songwriter Laura Veirs' seventh studio album, released on January 12, 2010. Back on the independent Bella Union label after three albums with Warner’s subsidiary, Nonesuch, Colorado-born chanteuse Laura Veirs has been making all sorts of changes since the release of her last album, 2007’s Saltbreakers. They include relocating to a new city (Portland, Oregon), setting up home with her long-time producer, Tucker Martine, and severing ties with her Seattle-based backing band. Indeed, the new album offers an airy, bucolic, for the most part drum-less, sound, effectively returning Veirs to the fingerpicking folk milieu that characterised her early records. The title comes from a type of peach Veirs saw at a farmer's market. Jim James of American rock band My Morning Jacket contributes falsetto harmonies on several tracks, including "Carol Kaye" which is a tribute to the so named bass guitarist.
