The Influences

During TakeRoot festival in November 2024, American folk singer Dalton Mills stopped by our recording space with his guitar and a handful of songs that meant something to him. Mills is the kind of songwriter who pays attention to the details. He's drawn to the spaces between words, the stories that don't spell everything out for you. His approach to folk music feels like someone who's spent real time with these songs before deciding they're worth sharing. Watch him play covers of Eric Taylor and Malcolm Holcombe, and his own song Shakespeare In Boots.
