Sierra Ferrell brings a enchanting upbeat traditional country bluegrass feel to the listener as she paints her story with her ear catching lyrics. Sierra brings her free spirited nature to life in Long Time Coming displaying her raw talents for story telling, out of the box imagination, crafted to make you lose yourself and become submerged in your imagination. This new album features 12 tracks, each with their own dynamic sound. The album is due to be released wherever music is sold on August 20th!

“There was this little dead-end bar nearby that my mom and I would go hang out at during the day, and I’d get up and sing Shania Twain songs,” she recalls. “There’d be hardly anyone in there, so I’d have free rein of the place.” Later on, while living in a trailer park, Ferrell had a chance encounter that would soon turn out to be life-changing. “I met all these homeless kids who were traveling all over the place and playing amazing old songs, and I wanted to be a part of that,” says Ferrell. “The music they were making was so honest, so pure. It seemed important to bring that kind of music back, and it’s been with me ever since.”

While the wayward sound of Long Time Coming is in many ways a perfect echo of Ferrell’s free-spirited nature, there’s also a much deeper intention at play: a desire to expand her listeners’capacity for wonder, so that they might uncover some enchantment in their own lives. “A lot of us are taught to wake up, go to work, make money, eat, sleep, rinse, repeat,” saysFerrell. “It’s so easy to get caught up in that nine-to-five routine, and end up numb and dulled-down to everything. I want my music to help people break away from that—to get lost in their imagination, and start seeing how magical the world can be if you just pay attention.”
