Mountain Man is a trio of three women (Amelia Meath, Molly Sarle, and Alex Sauser-Monnig) from Bennington, VT, whose haunting, harmony-laden music combines elements of folk, country and traditional American music. On Made the Harbor, their ‘10 debut album, Mountain Man sing a cappella about their mutual love of animals and nature and being a woman. Appalachian folk inspires the sparse instrumentation (lone acoustic guitar) as well as the complex harmonies and the lyrics, which also invoke the traditions, culture and land of the region. This intimate and austere album is simply a beautiful listen and a band well worth seeing live. – Written by JFelton
