Kristin Hersh: Poor Wayfaring Stranger
On the fourth and last track from her new In Shock EP, Kristin continues her habit of covering obscure or traditional songs. Poor Wayfaring Stranger is a traditional folk spiritual first recorded by Burl Ives in 1944. Kristin’s cover has superb dynamics musically and vocally which perfectly build to match the triumphant denouement of the song.
