about

Amanda Jo Williams debut LP
YES I WILL, MR. MAN

"Amanda Jo Williams’ Georgia drawl stands out among the other singers in Echo Park and Silver Lake. I always felt her music was more in line with L.A.’s freak folk scene, but her newly reissued 2006 album doesn’t catalog comfortably alongside other freak folk releases. It’s really more freak punkabilly, a hybrid of swampland country and stripped-down punk rock—like Stan Ridgway combined with the Geraldine Fibbers. I’ve only seen her leading two-pieces and trios, so I was caught off guard by the fullness of her sound and her punk fury. Luckily, Williams has a strong enough voice to transcend genres without stuttering, and she still maintains her charm over a full band. (Including fiddle!) She’s still got her usual triple-stuffed lyrics, too—squeezed tightly together with the urgency of the Lil’ Rascals’ Alfalfa but without the vocal cracks. The hyperactive delivery gives this album more edge than any mohawk band, and though there aren’t any songs as catchy as current live standby “Bear Eats Me,” “Ohio” and “Country Boys” are natural singalongs and “Nobody Can Love You Like I Do” will start a mosh pit. I never knew how rock ‘n’ roll Amanda Jo Williams could be. People who like this album will be passionate about it."
