about

I played five shows in April, which for me is a lot, so I didn't post any songs. Kinda thought the Sunday Sessions were over. But I've been writing and I want to keep sharing, so there will be at least a few more weeks of new songs.

I'm up for Best New Act in the Portland Phoenix, so please vote if you have a moment (you can vote once/day) -- voting ends May 18. Thank you!

lyrics

Light

I cannot be more for you than the light
that I have seen as I have worked the wide
turning over dirt while the shovel in the moon shines

northlands run with dogs and trash
tall pines keep the sunlight for their backs
we burned the weeds they stank and still grew back

oh there's a shine when the hillside breaks
and I can watch your chest expand
oh and the frost is just a joke often told
that I can almost I can almost understand

I cannot be more light than I have known
I can't out-sing the ghosts on the radio
and miles of pines there are miles of pines to go

honey I forgot the flowers for weeks
we were gonna be farmers we were gonna work to eat
look at us now and how the money ah the money

oh there's a shine when the hillside breaks
and I can watch your chest expand
oh and the frost is just a joke often told
that I can almost I can almost understand

so let harrows lie
we could shape this night
shape this night with our hands
and harvest it not
we'll be sirens in wide
sirens in wide dry lands

I cannot be more light than I have known
I can't out-sing the ghosts on the radio
and miles of pines there are miles of pines to go

so leave harrows lie
we could shape this night
shape this night with our hands
and harvest it not
we'll be sirens in wide
sirens in wide dry lands
