Listen: Joanna Newsom Tribute Album

At first I thought this was a charity album initiated by Joanna Newsom, hence the title. However, it is both a charity album (all proceeds go to Oxfam) and a tribute album to the lady herself. A distinct musical talent, a bevvy of musicians have gone about paying homage to Newsom with a series of covers of her songs. Artists include the likes of (not minimal talents themselves) M. Ward and Owen Pallet.

 

The album, titled Versions of Johanna, is streaming at the moment, have a listen:
