Tiny Vipers is Jesy Fortino, a musician living in Seattle. Since her last and first album, 2007's HandsAcross the Void, she has been back and forth across Europe, on tours into and through the UnitedStates, transfixing audiences into a solemn hush. Transcending the mere folk tag ("She's not telling stories; she's after incantation and trance"-NewYork Times), Fortino leaves behind her contemporaries. Life On Earth draws from love found and lost,places come and gone. The persona of this album stands like a mountain watching the world go by,changing so fast.
