It's so fitting that the harp is her main instrument, cause this chick is as cute and talented as an angel. Her babyish vocals tend to be either hit or miss with most who I've had listen to her. You'll either like them or rather not listen again, and shame if it's the latter, because you're missing out. If you're into Bob Dylan, you'll probably be down to give her a try, not to compare them lyrically or musically, but more of the mindset for opening yourself to a not typically mainstream vocal.
Go ahead and give her a listen, but do yourself a favor. Dim the lights to a lamp or two, mute the TV, grab a set of nice headphones if they're near so you can set the environment to a chill setting where you can really let the music flow through and soak you to the bone. I'm a big supporter of the effects of music varying depending on your state of mind and environment, so I indulge in these sorts of things. Regardless, do enjoy.
