There isn’t much that makes me feel good about humanity these days, but sometimes you’ll find a piece of music or something that just lifts your soul off the ground.

Päivi Hirvonen is a Finnish fiddler and singer, and, well, just listen and bask in the glory!

277: Mirel Wagner // When the Cellar Children See the Light of Day

When the Cellar Children See the Light of Day Mirel Wagner 2014, Sub Pop (Bandcamp)

Title of this one makes me think of a joke my aunt told me when I was little about a kid whose parents tell him he can do whatever he wants while they’re away except open the basement door—after a bunch of rigamarole, he of course eventually does, and what does he see? Trees, the sky…

There is not a lot of that (or any) humour in Mirel Wagner’s music, but Cellar Children is hitting with me more on this listen than it has previously. An Ethiopian Finn who sings in unaccented English, Wagner’s spare folk blues brings to mind at various points PJ Harvey, Fiona Apple, and Jack White, doing the kind of skulking olde timey murder balladry that really had a moment in the late ‘00s to early ‘10s (does anybody else remember the Builders and the Butchers?). The majority of these songs are no more than Wagner’s voice and acoustic guitar, and she is capable of transfixing without any talent show octave jumping or even raising her voice. She simply draws you in with her tone the same way you’re drawn in by noticing someone calmly staring at you from across the room, or catching a glimmer of eyes in the trees. I like it; for what it’s worth, my girlfriend loves it and demanded to know why I didn’t show her the record earlier.

As of 2024, it’s Wagner’s last record to date. But she did create an Instagram account last year, so perhaps we’ll hear more from her yet.

Nostatus (Traditional Finnish song)

[paularinkeli]

Maa on valkea jalkain alla En tunne tuttuja kallioita Tästä on kuljettu länteen Tästä on kuljettu luoteeseen Vaan minä kuljen ilman suuntaa ja maa on pehmeä, lempeä jalkain alla Maa on valkea jalkain alla En tunne tuttuja kallioita Tästä on kuljettu kaakkoon Tästä on kuljettu koilliseen Vaan minä kuljen oikeaan suuntaan ja maa on pehmeä, lempeä jalkain alla helmikuu 2021
