Courting Autumn by Pamela Wyn Shannon
Courting Autumn was recorded largely by Pamela on her own throughout New England and is a rustic almanac of autumnal songs burnished with a melancholy mood, wistful vocals, and delicate hand-spun guitar playing.

Pamela Wyn Shannon's inventive and intricate guitar work has been described as "a tiny chamber orchestra working in unison at the end of her hands," and her vocal style has a delicate lilting sensitivity. Her unique compositions have an elliptical quality which creates its own time-frame, rules, and kingdoms, and are reminiscent of the magic found in UK '60s artefacts.
