This ambitious record features five expansive tracks that blend folk, baroque pop, and avant-garde influences into a lush tapestry of harp-driven melodies and poetic storytelling. Produced in collaboration with Van Dyke Parks, Steve Albini, and Jim O'Rourke, "Ys" showcases Newsom's virtuosic harp playing and distinctive voice alongside intricate orchestral arrangements. The album has been widely praised for its lyrical depth and musical complexity, earning spots on numerous "best of the decade" lists since its 2006 release.
