quote from Patti Smith
“I get irritated with the world. I get irritated with politicians. I get very irritated with governments and with corporations. But in terms of imagination – my imagination is always fertile. I’m always thinking of my own things or constantly engaged by the things that other people do.” —Patti Smith
RIP John Prine
“I guess I just process death differently than some folks. Realizing you’re not going to see that person again is always the most difficult part about it. But that feeling settles, and then you are glad you had that person in your life, and then the happiness and the sadness get all swirled up inside you. And then you’re this great, awful candy bar, walking around in a pair of shoes.” —John Prine, quoted by Pitchfork, 2018

Instagram post from The Wood Brothers
“Here’s another one from our tiny attic sessions we did in January. We miss playing together and we miss playing for our fans but we feel inspired by the connection and community that’s resulted from everyone trying to get thru this together. This song is a good reminder not to sweat the small stuff. Enjoy and be safe!”
