Martha Spencer - ‘Wonderland’
The latest video from Martha Spencer is for the title-track of her second solo album, Wonderland. The record comes on the heels of Spencer’s acclaimed self-titled 2018 album that saw rave reviews from the likes of Rolling Stone Magazine (“both traditional and timeless”) and No Depression (“an invaluable resource”). On Wonderland, new songs rub shoulders with traditional songs; universal ideas, themes, and tropes fluidly passing back and forth. It’s a testament to Spencer’s clever ear for turning a phrase, the kind of gift that used to make country singers famous. In Spencer’s hands, the songs shine with a humble beating heart, speaking the truths of her small mountain community, while telling the stories of the music and the people she grew up with, the kind of people who put “rags over riches, joy over judgment, love over all,” in her words.
Wonderland is due out on 2nd September 2022.
