lyrics
finis terrae (courtney hartman)
i can feel the ground under my feet
gently upholding me
overhead the clouds laying low
drip like honeycomb
i’ll rise again
to follow my shadow into the day
out to the end of the earth
down with sun in the water
everyday a line in the weave
a whole and new tapestry
pulling at the fray i can see
your color in my seam
i’ll rise again
to follow my shadow into the day
out to the end of the earth
down with sun in the water
i’ll rise again
follow my shadow into the day
out to the end of the earth
where we'll burn these dirty old clothes
lay our muscle and bones
we’ll burn these dirty old clothes
lay our muscle and bones
down with sun in the water
I don't listen to much country music, so I don't really know where this one lands, but I find it has some pretty good tunes and definitively good musicianship. Some of the songs mights soound a bit cheesy, but I enjoy this album overall nonetheless. The tunes which are more sounding like ballads get my preference, such as Northern Babe, and North Country Blues. Thibaut Devigne
This song came to via a Twitch streamer called FoothillRounders who pretty much plays the entire discography. The delicate and angsty lyric leads the listener down the path to the musical payoff that is Nightbird. coachshipley
Bright and skipping songs that foreground the sound of the banjo and fingerstyle guitar in music that feels timeless. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 5, 2020
Sweet harmonies & strummed melodies; the duo delve into decades-old folk, jazz, and country to find a timeless kind of love and connection. Bandcamp New & Notable May 23, 2018
The instrumentation and songwriting in this album is really top-tier. Aofie is one of my favorite folk/alt-country artists and she performs wonderfully, bringing her unique tone of voice to this project. This album was my first step into Aofie's artistry, and is firmly one of my favorite albums. rileyridgway
