Are a 3-piece "grunge-grass" band who I've been listening to for about 4 or 5 years now. They were in Paste Magazine last month or the month before that, so now they're getting bigger. I don't know any other band like them. I really like the albums "The Gleam" and "Emotionalism". They seem to capture my life in their songs. That's how you know it's good music and good people behind the music. They've lived life in all its glory and shame. Being human is hard. Being a lover and friend and family member is even harder. It's easy to not get involved in life or with people, but what kind of life is that? To quote the Avett Brothers, "Am I growing backwards with time?" I wonder what it will be like when I'm 30, 40, 50...80? Will I still be concerned with all of this? Will my lovers and friends and family still be with me? Will their memory continue? Will it all matter? Does it all matter? The pain? The joy? Those little moments of truth are what molds us little people into big people with opinions. What are the little moments worth? They sure do feel like they're worth alot when your heart-deep in shit or in love.

Lyrics to "Find My Love" By The Avett Brothers
What makes it easy to treat people bad?
Some things you say and you can't take 'em back
What makes it easy to run from the past,
Like a child runs from the dark?
Which is the poison and which is the wine?
The scent and the colors are so much alike
And how much of each will it take to decide,
When your at the table alone?
Where do you go when it's perfectly clear?
You might find your way but you won't find it here
What makes it easy to sound so sincere,
When you know that you don't care?
Love gets lost
Love gets lost
Find my love
Find my love
How can you tell when goodbye means goodbye
Not just for now, for the rest of you life
How can you stand there with love in you eyes
And still be walking away
Love gets lost
Love gets lost
Find my love
Find my love
Find my love
Find my love
