When Joanna Newsom isn't laughing it up with funny-man fiancé Andy Samberg , she's doing what she does best: being an accomplished musician. But it's been awhile since she's had a proper release and we're still itching for a followup to 20102s Have One On Me . In the meantime, we might be momentarily appeased with that new song she debuted live late last year and this dainty little cover of "The North Star Grassman and the Ravens" , originally released by English folk singer-songwriter, Sandy Denny, during the '70s.

Joanna delivers a beautiful cover of Sandy Denny's The North Star Grassman and the Ravens . The video is equally as beguiling. It is to be released by Wren who sell all kinds of cool shit.
Will the 013 bring us a new LP from the JOANNA NEWSOM ? TBC. For unknown reasons to me the NEWSOM popped into the studio and unleashed a cover of the SADNY DENNY's 1971 folk mp3, THE NORTH STAR GRASSMAN AND THE RAVENS .
"The North Star Grassman and the Ravens" is originally by British folk singer-songwriter Sandy Denny.
Joanna Newsom has paid tribute to often-overlooked but enormously influential singer-songwriter Sandy Denny with this cover of her song ‘The North Star Grassman and the Ravens’. The original track featured on Denny's 1971 album of the same name, with this cover seeing the soon-to-be-wed Newsom in typically delicate form. The cover, available to hear in the live video below, was recorded in connection with LA-based clothing label Wren. Take a listen and watch below:
Joanna Newsom looks and sounds absolutely stunning and mythic covering Sandy Denny's "The North Star Grassman and The Ravens" for Wren (all the clothes you see is from their Fall/Winter '13 collection). #via Read more articles like " Joanna Newsom - "The North Star Grassman and The Ravens" " on Pretty Much Amazing .

The newly engaged Joanna Newsom hasn't given us a whole ton of new music since the Have One On Me motherlode a couple of years ago, but she recently hit the studio to record a cover of Sandy Denny's 1971 folk song " The North Star Grassman And The Ravens ." Given its vintage, the song sadly is not about the 2013 champion Baltimore Ravens, but it's a simple, spare, harp-and-voice track, and it is beautiful. Newsom recorded the song for the L.A. fashion line Wren, and she also wears Wren's clothes and co-stars with an [...]

Even though we've been waiting for the Good Intentions Paving Company for years, any sign of Joanna Newsom is good news. LA-based fashion label Wren (named after Jenny Wren, a winsome little creature who makes dresses for dolls in Charles Dickens’ Our Mutual Friend ) took Joanna Newsom to the woods to do a cover of Sandy Denny's The North Star Grassman and The Ravens accompanied by an owl. Yes, this is as magical as you think it is.

![TEA LEIGH’S WARM, WOOLLY FOLK [STREAM]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4815189_lg.jpg)
Both experiencing nature and being in love seem to force vulnerability. Stripped of all pretenses and dishonesty, these two elements can certainly leave us battered, but survival can make us stronger. Tea Leigh writes music drenched in both nature and love that sounds beautifully weathered and wise. Leigh's self-recorded album, Make Things , is so deliciously lo-fi, there's almost a layer of grime and smoke filtered in through the clouds of sound. Filled with crunchy, woolly folk tales, there's no makeup, no lights, no charades, and Leigh is ever aware [...]

Kelly , but now it looks like Chicago music fans can expect to get down with TNGHT, El-P, Killer Mike, Chairlift, Joanna Newsome, Foxygen and much more.
