The album peaked at number one on the Billboard Alternative Albums chart and outsold her 2006 album,Ys. On December 8, 2015, she performed "Leaving the City" from the album on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Musical style and influences Newsom's musical style has been labelled as progressive folk, chamber folk, indie folk and baroque pop. Newsom's early work was strongly influenced by polyrhythms. After Ys, Newsom said she had lost interest in polyrhythms. They "stopped being fascinating to me and started feeling wanky." The press has sometimes labeled her as one of the most prominent members of the modern psychedelic folk and freak folk movement. Newsom, however, claims no ties to any particular music scene. Her song-writing incorporates elements of Appalachian music and avant-garde pop. Newsom is a soprano. Her vocal style (in the November 2006 issue of The Wire, she described her voice as "untrainable") has shadings of folk and Appalachian shaped-note timbres. Newsom has expressed disappointment at comments that her singing is "child-like." Critics noticed a change in Newsom's voice on her album Have One on Me. In the spring of 2009, Newsom developed vocal cord nodules and could not speak or sing for two months. The recovery from the nodules and further "vocal modifications" changed her voice. She has cited Vladimir Nabokov and Ernest Hemingway as influences on her lyrics. Personal life From 2004 to 2007, Newsom dated Smog frontman Bill Callahan. He provided guest vocals on her song 'Only Skin' from her second studio album Ys. She met comedian Andy Samberg in 2006 at one of her concerts. Newsom's engagement to Samberg was confirmed by his representative in February 2013. They married on September 21, 2013, in Big Sur, California. In March 2014, Newsom and Samberg purchased the estate Moorcrest in Beachwood Canyon, Los Angeles, which had been owned in the 1920s by the parents of actress Mary Astor, and prior to that was rented by Charlie Chaplin. They also own a home in the West Village of Manhattan, New York. On August 8, 2017, Samberg's representative confirmed that Newsom and Samberg had become parents to their first child, a daughter. The birth of Samberg and Newsom's second child was announced by The Lonely Island's Jorma Taccone in February 2023.
