    For you again was recorded in four days, in a living room in Minneapolis. We recorded it to tape with very few overdubs. The main vocals are recorded live, we didn’t splice any tracks so you’ll hear squeaking floorboards, chairs adjusting, the faint sound of a jet overhead, or headphone cords tapping against the back of guitars. These live moments that are captured on tape play an important role in capturing the essence of the energy in the room at the time we recorded. It’s my favorite way to record. Playing a song until you discover the heart of it, and then letting go just enough to let the song speak for itself. I feel that everything comes alive in that moment. At the end of the keeper take, as you take your headphones off, everyone looks around the room locking eyes, knowing that we had discovered the true meaning of that song and just laid it down on tape to share with whoever is willing to listen. It’s a truly magical moment. There's something special about going on a journey with other people, starting with the sketches of a song and letting the true meaning guide you to a finished product. There’s something very special and timeless in that.

about

There were many formations of this song before settling on this melody and structure. It turned into a cherry sunny day song helped by the beautiful dobro played by the great Andy Dee. The overarching theme of the song was spurred on by a sentence my dad said to me in passing that never really left me. He casually mentioned how time marches on while staring off into the distance contemplating whatever it was were were talking about. Those words were somewhat haunting while at the same time inspiring. It’s what drives me to keep creating and making the most of my time here.

lyrics

DAYS GO BY

Girl you look like a child, who's ready to learn
And I feel like a boy heart heavy with my eyes wide and ready to burn
You used to live in the wind, you used to float in my dreams
And I was kinda crazy, my heart free and easy, my soul pure as pure could be

Chorus

I'll survive
I've learned a lot since I've been with you
Cause love takes time
Time has a way of running out on you
BUT I don't mind
I’m glad I spend it with you

You can still pack a punch, straight into my chest
And I don't mince words when I'm hurt you'll know I don't leave nothing to contest
But you still run through my blood, my heart beats your name
And I know I drive you crazy but I'm still your baby and you light up when You hear my name

Bridge

If this is what's left love
Well you'll be just fine
You'll be the stars honey
and I’ll be the night
