The Grammy Award winning sister duo Larkin Poe has just released a Deluxe edition of their album “Bloom”.  The package includes additional songs that have been stripped down as acoustic renditions.

The Deluxe edition of “Bloom” is available only on the Larkin Poe website and at tour stops.

Speaking on the new album the duo says, “when we decided to reinterpret ‘You Are The River’ for Acoustic Companion Vol II, we wanted to do our best to let the tenderness and vulnerability of the song shine through. The lyrics of ‘You Are The River’ are deeply personal and were written during a time when I needed a beacon of hope. Being able to re-record the song in such a pure way, with the lush tones of the piano and the dobro, felt healing.”

They added, “we wrote and recorded our album Bloom a whirlwind year and a half ago.  In the intervening time, we’ve carried the songs of ‘Bloom’ all across the USA on tour and have gotten to know them in an even deeper and more personal way. Being able to find some stillness in which to reimagine some of our favorite songs from the album has awoken yet another wave of rebirth in our creative souls, and we can’t wait for folks to experience the re-blooming of Bloom.”

Considered some of the hardest working musicians today, the duo are about to head for Europe to tour with special guests Son Little
