Mid-Week Song

 

We last featured indie folk artist Gregory Alan Isakov in 2016, with his song "Amsterdam." He's had more success since, earning a Grammy nomination in 2019 for his folk album "Evening Machines."  Isakov lists Leonard Cohen and Bruce Springsteen as influences on his music. His new album "Appaloosa Bones" is coming out in August, and he's released a single from that album, "The Fall." 

The fall, the fall, the fall
I keep stumbling back

Ivory bone opera glass
Angles of attack
You heard blood was thick, brothers and sisters
But ya don’t know where anybody’s at

Time was a bust, you thought you’d better be tough
Nobody gets past
The trembling wire
