Mariee Sioux – Flowers And Blood
Mariee Sioux has one of those voices that manage to captivate me for hours on end and so felt it was about time I posted a vid of her performing live…
Mariee Sioux is a Nevada City, CA-based singer songwriter. She recorded her debut album, Faces in the Rocks, in May of 2007 and released it via Grass Roots records in October of that same year. She is a folk singer in the vein of Joni Mitchell and Joanna Newsom.
Sioux’s sound and infusing backvocals are a strong-soft and folky aproach to Native American themes, and while in her late records she uses only fingerpicked guitar and few piano, Faces in the Rocks features numerous Indian sounds (such as percussion and wind instruments) , aiding Mariee in the quest for illustrating the spirits and joys of the once Virgin Lands.
