Solo output of Alexandra Sauser-Monnig, founding member of Mountain Man
Has collaborated with Sylvan Esso, Hiss Golden Messenger and Tift Merritt
Debut album Dawnbreaker out now on Nonesuch/Bella Union
"Poppy folk music so sweetly radiant, it's essentially a summer sunbeam." -NPR
"An album of quiet possibility: of open spaces and the open road; of solitude and new beginnings... By keeping her arrangements sparse, Sauser-Monnig's songs retain a sense of early morning introspection that linger." -Uncut
"In spite of the heartbreak that bubbles under many of the songs on the album, most of all Dawnbreaker revels in the joy of making music with and about the simplest of things. Voices that sing of a raindrop that seeps through a canopy of trees, guitars that soothe the ache of loss, and machines that sound as human as the breath that powers the harmonica." -Soundblab
