Good! yes, totally enjoyable..

Having 'discovered' the wonderful Baby Dee (and thence other Durtro-artists via Current 93) I've been wondering about other female singer/harpists
or other 'unusual acts'

I like Virginia Astley's material - no harps there necessarily - and Deerhoof work for me too.

But I have recently downloaded odds and ends by Joanna Newsom (27 yr old from Nevada, I think). She's quirky enough, and suitably kookie to be worth investing in, but I'm not sure if her voice is strong, or just cute?
Nice Super-8 video too

I think she's amazing, and there's a lot of material out there.

Can anyone recommend others...?

If you think that's good, you should give Empires and Dance a go.
