 Notes  
     A singer and songwriter whose literate, impressionistic storytelling and
     richly evocative melodies have made her one of the best-respected artists
     in the contemporary folk community, Patty Griffin was born in Old Town,
     Maine on March 16, 1964. The youngest of seven children, Griffin was 16
     years old when she bought her first guitar for $50. While Griffin learned
     to play, she showed no interest in making music a career in her teens and
     twenties; however, when her marriage broke up in 1992, Griffin, now living
     in Boston, developed a keener interest in writing songs, and was soon
     performing regularly at local coffeehouses.
     Patty Griffin has always been an artist fearlessly, eagerly willing to
     follow her muse wherever it may take her, and few artists can bare their
     souls in the recording studio with such compelling results. For her ninth
     studio album, 2015's "Servant Of Love", Griffin has given herself more
     creative freedom than ever before, as it's the first release from PGM
     Recordings, her own independent label. While "Servant Of Love" doesn't
     sound like an album she couldn't have made for one of her former sponsors,
     it is a bravely eclectic, often enigmatic work that doesn't announce all
     its attentions at first glance, but allows Griffin to use her lyrics and
     voice to communicate a soulful style that's as much about tone as the
     literal message of the verses.
     As the title suggests, "Servant Of Love" is, for the most part, a
     collection of songs about love, but these are not love songs per se.
     Instead, these tunes ponder the mysteries of attraction (the title song),
     the downsides of failing relationships ('Hurt A Little While' and 'Good and
     Gone'), the love of a mother for her child ('250,000 Miles'), the power of
     physical attraction ('Snake Charmer'), and the nexus where love and
     spirituality meet ('Shine A Different Way' and 'There Isn't One Way'). The
     circular patterns of "250,000 Miles," "Made of the Sun," and "Everything's
     Changed" suggest Eastern modalities finding a common ground with American
     folk and blues, while Ephraim Owens' trumpet on "Gunpowder" and "Servant Of
     Love" adds an earthy jazz undertow to the arrangements, which takes this
     album just outside the boundaries of rootsy Americana.
     And though some of the tunes are whisper quiet while others howl like a
     honky tonk on Saturday night, Griffin knows just how hard to hit the
     material whatever the surroundings, and her vocals are emotionally
     intelligent and expressive throughout, while Griffin and producer Craig
     Ross coax some splendid performances from their session crew. "Servant Of
     Love" is an album that needs a few spins to be fully appreciated, but it's
     as sincere, heartfelt, and artful as anything Griffin has released to date,
     and if the form may seem elusive to some listeners, the content is powerful
     and satisfying, a reminder of why Patty Griffin is one of our best
     singer/songwriters.
