Simone White makes a kind of soulful American folk music, a mixture of the bluesy longing you get in the music of saudade — singers like Cesaria Evora and Joao Gilberto — and political protest. Great songs — mostly Simone's own — and masterful production again by Mark Nevers, who did Candi Staton's album for Honest Jon's, last year.
