We’ve only just become acquainted with Laura Jean Anderson, but already she’s proving to be one of our favorite finds of 2016. The Washington native’s commanding croon is all-encompassing and undeniable, while her timeless take on songwriting is equally rich and rewarding to the ear. There’s a refreshing, almost nostalgic quality to her unique blend of folk, rock, and Americana, and it’ll sweep you off your feet if you let it.

If you’re eager for more confirmation as to Anderson’s awesomeness, look no further than her dazzling debut EP, Righteous Girl, which, conveniently enough, is streaming exclusively below. It’s warm, accessible, and airtight from top to bottom, signaling the start of what we believe will be a long and fruitful career in music. Give it a spin after the break, and let us know what you think in the replies.

Righteous Girl officially arrives next Friday, March 4.
