Sofia Talvik – Americana / Folk with Swedish Roots
Unmistakably Nordic in flavor, Sofia Talvik somehow still conforms to American interpretations of her own original music, a North Sea siren blending sparkle and melancholy, creating a special niche of folk music.
I’ve been listening to The Killers album Sawdust. It’s an album of b-sides and covers. They made a great version of an old Kenny Rogers song called Ruby.
I found the original song and the video of Kenny Rogers performing it on www.youtube.com.
Watch and listen to it here and then download or listen to my soft mellow version.
KENNY ROGERS ROCKS!
