lyrics
january first (courtney hartman)
making soft resolutions at the end of december
to walk a little slower and try to talk cleaner
if i’m particularly ambitious i'll wake before the sunup
we’ll cook more together and try not to ever fall asleep with the light switch on
january first will be here
ready or not
i can be to careful you can be too kind
i can be too sorry you can be too right
we can be too knowing we can be too wise
if we both stay quiet it'll keep us blind
january first will be here ready or not
one way or another i love you
more than i thought
there's a comfort in knowing how a story ends
maybe that's why i don't mind when you tell the same ones
over and over and over again
january first will be here we'll make it or not
one way or another i love you
more than i thought
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
It's just impeccably done. And, it doesn't have vocals, which means it's easier to listen while I work. :)
Last One on the Line is just amazing. I would love to hear more from this group. meatnordrink
