Rancher’s pride, how the rest of us deal with our lives
I was up heating my cattle prod, branding my cows in the night
Each one marked, the little ones squeal when I walk
The bigger ones plaintively take my heat, eating up grass as I leave
East road line, where the country meets the sky
Tops of the cedars and stars collide
Bleed into one in the sky
Country pride, the things I would do for my wife
I see through the window her car pull out
She’s coming back home in a while
She’s my friend, yeah the word gets around
Out in the country our fingers grasp
Meeting our own in the grass

"deep in the swirling space, where my body and the world collide" Incredible, fraught, deep, challenging music from Gabby. I loved working on this album!! Also, I co-produced it :) Bellows
Bad Moves is a very melody-centered and full of life punk band. I really love this record and you will too! lots of wacky moments of playful guitar stuff and really exciting songs. One Thing is my fav Bellows
Point the Flashlight and Walk is my favorite thing Felix has made. It has a ton of wisdom about devotion and how love changes after relationships end. I learned a lot from this record. Bellows
Despite its themes of isolation and loneliness, Caroline White's latest batch of folk-pop confessionals is an LP brimming with confidence. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 7, 2019
