Lonesomers

Lonesomers is the second studio album released by American singer and actress Mare Winningham in 1997.

With her Oscar-nominated role as a folk singer in the 1995 movie Georgia, her vocal and musical skills got more noticed by the general public and she started work on her second album.

Winningham solely penned all the songs on the album except for a cover of The Rolling Stones' "The Last Time", as well as playing the guitar and dulcimer.

Despite critical acclaim for her voice and guitar playing, looking for a label contract proved difficult for Winningham.

The album received good reviews, with Allmusic's Stephen Thomas Erlewine favourably remarking Winningham's voice and songwriting, calling it "a humble, appealing album that relies on craftsmanship instead of flash", despite some songs being "slightly monotonous".
