Palberta: A Carnival of Controlled Chaos

On the back of the Bye Bye Berta album cover there’s a transcription of “Mary Had a Little Lamb” that Ani wrote as a child. The spelling might not be entirely accurate and the letters might not all be orthodox, but you can see her undeniable confidence there. It comes from a place of youth and wonder that is hard, if not impossible, for most people to find again. But that’s exactly where all of Palberta’s albums come from.
