WATCH THE SKY continues folk-songstress Patty Larkin's string of critically acclaimed long-players for High Street and Vanguard released in the 1990s and 2000s. Playing 12 different instruments and mastering a variety of styles, all with her trademark looseness and sensuality, Larkin delivers a platter full of spacious and haunting folk-noir would-be classics.
