American Kid is Patty Griffin's seventh album and her first of new material since 2007 – with a gap for the Grammy-winning gospel CD Downtown Church and her work with Robert Plant's Band of Joy.

After the deceptively simply opening track Go Wherever You Wanna Go, Griffin weaves a complex and moving tapestry about life in general and her late father, Lawrence Joseph Griffin, in particular.

There is rousing music – Please Don’t Let Me Die in Florida – that is driven on by musicians Luther and Cody Dickinson, of the North Mississippi Allstars, and Doug Lancio, and also the slow grace of songs such as Ohio (co-written with Plant and one of three songs on which he offers subtle support). Faithful Son has a stinging sadness. It's almost as Griffin has turned Henry David Thoreau's line "most men lead lives of quiet desperation" into a family song.

Griffin's father is the specific focus of Irish Boy and this ruminative track is complemented by a witty cameo song about her grandparents, Get Ready Marie. There is one cover song, of country singer Lefty Frizzell's Mom & Dad's Waltz. ---Martin Chilton, telegraph.co.uk

 

Centred around her father's passing, this seventh from the American country singer is a suitably ruminative affair, mixing her sadness with cameos from his life. Its gentle acoustic arrangements, full of intricate guitars and mandolin, come with only the odd up-tempo piece, such as the ringing Don't Let Me Die in Florida. Griffin reaches deep for the songs, taking her father's part as a young man on Not a Bad Man and the piano ballad Irish Boy, while the lovely Ohio, to which her sidekick, Robert Plant, adds harmonies, reflects on waters that are "softer and deeper than time". A triumph. ---Neil Spencer, theguardian.com
