## Description

Many know Joy Williams as one half of the four-time Grammy-winning folk-rock duo The Civil Wars. Until their 2012 hiatus (and eventual break up in August 2014) the singer-songstress with her long sea witch hair and Mona Lisa half-smile rarely revealed herself, except through the duo s bruising and stark lyrics of romantic conflations and doomed intimacies.On VENUS she changes all that. No longer content to just conjure the antique grace of some mythic, bygone world, Williams was intent to actually pierce the veil of metaphor and an imagined history and tell a more honest, human story of one woman s journey out of darkness.Over 11 unstintingly honest songs, she unabashedly re-counts what occurred in her life over the past two and a half years. She doesn&apos;t try to defend or explain, but in-stead tells a simple straightforward story of events, sparing no one, especially herself.Over the arc of the album, the listener can feel Williams coming home to herself, after fearlessly excavating all the pain and confusion. In the end she can see her life from a great altitude, able to view her choices as an overarching geography that finally makes sense to her, freeing her to become the woman she needed to be. To find the parts of herself that were broken, becoming stronger and content to just be.You might call it a coming-of-age album, but it is so much more than that. It shows how one woman has come to live her truth the good, the bad, the petulant, the honorable and in the end, shows all of us how to live our own.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    She definitely has not lost her voice.
  

*by S***A on July 3, 2015*









  
  
    I grew up listening to Joy Williams as a Christian artist. Surrender in particular was a favorite song of mine. When I listened to The Civil Wars years later I loved everything about their sound and her voice especially but I didn't realize she was the same Joy Williams I listened to as a kid. That was a cool surprise. The last Civil Wars album was just incredible in its quality. You could hear them falling apart and as sad as it was, it was also a beautiful piece of art.When they broke up my first thought was that I hoped Joy would make a solo album. I was thrilled when she announced she was going too. I waited anxiously for this album and she does not disappoint. The songs are raw and emotional. Her voice makes all of them above average because she has some serious talent.I love the way this album grows on you. It has so many layers. It's interesting and beautiful. "What a good woman does" is one of the most gorgeous songs I have heard in awhile. It's the stand out track on the album for me but as a whole I enjoy the album in its entirety.There is more where this came from I'm sure of it. She just gets better and better.

    Joy Williams' new solo album
  

*by R***G on July 1, 2015*









  
  
    I was heartbroken when The Civil Wars broke up.  While I still regret we'll be forever deprived of that particular magic, Joy Williams' new solo album, Venus, is definitely a keeper.  Outstanding tracks include the haunting, "Until the Levee," the achingly confessional "What a Good Woman Does," and the defiant "Woman."  The use of electronic beats under Appalachian-influenced tunes is an interesting idea, even if it doesn't quite gel sometimes, like in "Sweet Love of Mine."  I'll keep this album in heavy rotation in my music library.
  


### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Need more acoustic
  

*by K***D on June 26, 2019*









  
  
    I was expecting the beautiful sounds of her Front Porch CD. This is more electronic and pop with a few more acoustic. Maybe she's experimenting.  I hope she stays with her beautiful acoustic sound.
