Been recording with Mike Samos. He is not only a gem of a human being, he is also helping us capture the best recordings of Westeryear yet. Also, he played dreamy steel guitar on a song.
Playing a show at Aurora in PVD next week.

Dear Someone
Sitting in front of our new piano
Framing “Rocky Top”
Half bear, the other half cat
Remastered version of February tapes is up.
A lil’ more hiss, a lot more soul.
Recorded to 4-track tape in Barrington and Providence, RI. Themes inspired by Emily Dickinson. Best appreciated through headphones.
Lyrics:
Close quarters. I live in the corners Of the yellow house on a half hill.
Night spinning. No room to fall down dizzy. Confined to these domestic tasks.
I do best Knees pressed into chest. Or so they said.
Far off places Framed and fractioned. Wonder lost in destination.
I'd do best to dull this restlessness. Or so they said.
They said the stars wouldn't be enough to guide me And the one that did would burn my skin. This subtle light that grows inside me Was only safe when it was dim.
But I see best When I forget what they expect.
