The third full-length release from Northern Virginia's acoustic innovator Yasmin Williams. Acadia is her most sonically expansive work to date, and features her on various guitars, banjo, calabash drum, tap shoes, and kora.
Williams is joined on the album by an eclectic cast of collaborators-including Immanuel Wilkins on saxophone, Dom Flemons on rhythm bones, Aoife O'Donovan on vocals, William Tyler on guitar, and many others-creating a folk music that reflects the wide range of musical influences that have inspired her throughout her life.
Of the album, Williams says: "The songs are seeds I planted, and the seeds grew into the album, Acadia: a place of peace, a place where creativity can blossom, a place where everyone can fit in together and collaborate effectively, a place where the fruits of my own labor in music can fully flourish without judgment or prejudice."
