Mary Lattimore praised by NPR

January 15, 2021

Mary Lattimore’s latest album Silver Ladders is gaining national attention. The album made The New Yorker’s “Best Music of 2020” list in November, coming in at number three. Now, NPR has labeled it one of the “50 Best Albums of 2020.” Author Lars Gotrich states that Mary Lattimore “plays the harp like wind through the leaves—in circles that slowly spiral outward, shifting the scenery in small gestures that open to wide vistas.” Lattimore’s album was produced by Slowdive’s Neil Halstead and was recorded over nine days at his studio. Silver Ladders is available to stream online or purchase as an LP or CD. Read Harp Column’s interview with Lattimore in our July/August 2020 issue.
