For me, it would have to be Andrew Bird A bit more rough around the edges is my favorite, current, personal hero, Shakey Graves doing 85 going north on 81
...for the picture he paints in the most calm, genuinely beautiful manner that truly defies all accusations of "cheesy." I dreamed you were a cosmonaut
of the space between our chairs
And I was a cartographer
of the tangles in your hair wont see my baby till the rising of the sun
Tennessee keeps warnin’ me if i booze it i might lose it
but shine on Georgia Moon
shine on yeah well its hard to see the road
through this rain and all the fog well this Appalachian driving has me tired as a dog
but this mason full of moonshine, is gonna keep me mighty strong
so shine on Georgia Moon
shine on
...whom I've probably posted here before, perhaps this very song, but damn it's good. Here's another favorite in case. so loosen up the lid and open up the throttle
you wanna see the light?
aint gonna find it in a bottle
cause when I’m sippin’ on a jar
the road aint quite so long
I've seen Andrew Bird a handful of times live and he's fantastic. If you've not already done so, go check him out. I'm a big fan.
