Valerie June - Owls, Omens, and Oracles

Across a roving, at times meandering, at times rousingly joyous, and even occasionally frankly dull 14 songs, June's voice is always clear and true-feeling, making the whole thing well worthwhile. There's something embracing about this music, something warmly, idiosyncratically, insistently human.
