About the album:
On Burnished, Amelia Hogan sings both traditional and contemporary folk music with lilting grace and subtlety, reviving songs both old and new, giving them a fresh, polished feel. Hogan transports her listeners out of time and place with haunting melodies and evocative storytelling. The 14-track album features one original, "Rolling in the Gold", a number of traditional, public domain songs and interpretations of songs by contemporary songwriters including Dominic Behan, Gordon Bok, Karine Polwart, and Trevor Peacock, with sources from Ireland, Scotland, Canada, England, and America. Like someone carefully shining precious metals, Hogan brings out the core beauty of these songs, allowing them to shine.
Produced by Hogan at Foxtail Sound in Dixon, CA, with celebrated musicians Marla Fibish, Christa Burch, Jimmy Murphy, John W**d, Maureen Brennan, Ray Frank, Richard Mandel, Skyler Blakeslee, and Steve O’Neill, Burnished explores the deep connections between people and the places they inhabit within the living world. The album highlights familiar, often overlooked folklore about real places, sharing the hidden magic found in connecting with the natural world and its spirits of place, or Genius Loci. It also reflects on the emotional impact of remembering an animist perspective (what happens when we act as if everything around us is conscious?), where we share our space with everything around us-both seen and unseen. Through this, she encourages us to approach our relationships mindfully - with people, nature, and the world we co-inhabit.
