Cowgirl Giving — Florry

A draw of Rigiri with her friends, my OC from Amphibia.

I didn’t expect this record; then again, this is my introduction to Florry, the project of Philadelphia’s Francie Medosch. It’s been a long time since I’ve heard anything like Big Fall. There’s a slight connection with the Strapping Fieldhands’ last record, Across the Susquehanna (2021), this year’s best release that seemingly everyone missed. The late Jim Dickinson was quoted as saying, “The best performances never get recorded, the best recordings never get released and the best records don’t sell.” Of course, he was correct. Florry’s Big Fall proves Dickinson’s adage true—it’s another album that’s fallen under the radar—and it shows there’s no connection between public relations and good music. The obvious nexus with Florry is Gram Parsons’ work with the International Submarine Band, Byrds, etc. But there’s a playfulness on Big Fall reminiscent of the Holy Modal Rounders or something that would’ve appeared on ESP records. But it’s all here on Big Fall—whistle, double bass, pedal steel, etc. (When’s the last time you heard pedal steel in underground music?) Medosch is young and she’s already coming out of the gate with strong material. Gerard Cosloy over there at 12XU is keeping his ear to the ground. -Ryan Leach (12XU)
