Co-produced by McEntire, Missy Thangs and
Luke Norton, _Every Acre_ features nine poignant new songs, including
duets with S.G.Goodman and Indigo Girls' Amy Ray. Along with the
announcement, McEntire (also of Mount Moriah fame) shares “Dovetail,” the new single that imagistically depicts various women and
their various gifts, their various traumas.
Raised in the Blue Ridge foothills of rural Appalachia before earning
her B.F.A. in Creative Writing, H.C. McEntire delivers deeply reflective
country storytelling that straddles the line between music and poetry.
With lilting melodies and lush harmonies, _Every Acre_ explores the
acres of our physical and emotional homes. She grapples with themes of
grief, loss and links to land and loved ones with an unwavering honesty,
as existential concepts of claiming land, claiming self, and being
claimed by ancestry and heritage permeate the hauntingly beautiful
landscape of this poignant collection of songs. The striking debut
single “Soft Crook” offers an unfiltered reflection of
navigating depression bubbling over stark _Zuma_-esque guitar twangs,
garnering early attention from Stereogum, BrooklynVegan, No Depression
and more.
H.C. McEntire first established a reputation for her raw, soulful voice
as frontwoman of Mount Moriah and later as a backup singer in Angel
Olsen’s band, before striking out on her own with her debut solo album
_LIONHEART _in 2018. That release, along with 2020’s follow-up _Eno
Axis_, garnered widespread acclaim from press including Aquarium
Drunkard, UNCUT, UPROXX and more. Pitchfork praised her “_searing
voice and imagistic songwriting_,” and Flood declared,
“_McEntire’s vocals have topsoil grit while being soaring and
formidable_.”
