I once saw British singer-songwriter Vashti Bunyan play at a music festival curated by Belle & Sebastian. It was a reminder of the influence folk singers like Bunyan had on contemporary indiepop. But there are also more direct heirs to the likes of Vashti Bunyan. Such as New York singer Dagmar Zuniga, who just released an album (with the appropriately poetic title in filth your mystery is kingdom / far smile peasant in yellow music) of quiet folk songs (think candle in the bedroom, not people around the campfire), of which I find this Plenty For All The Masses particularly beautiful.
