Master V1

Not Go Quietly

Hallelujah Bitters

Harvest

The fall on the way
Never been more excited for the summer to fade
So much pain,
Black and blue all over again and again
Disease is tough starting
to look more and more like it’s actually us
To keep coming back
Repeating history, we’ve forgotten to dream

Waiting on November can’t come soon enough, can’t come soon enough

Up in the mourning
Ashes to ashes, we will rise up
The dam’s been broken
Too many holes in the story to last
Feet on the ground ring louder
Than bells, bullets, gas bursting in air
The statues will fall,
We will not regret, we will not forget

Waiting on November can’t come soon enough, can’t come soon enough

I have been to your mountaintop.
I laid myself down
Waiting for the answers, still I had not done enough
The hate in this nation as strong as its greed
Impoverished the future and stopped his breathe with your knee,
Killed when she woke, on his way home, alone in the street

We will not let this go. Our feet will sow. The future grows.
“Lift ev’ry voice and sing” to the
changing of this guard, we will take the charge,
Let our people go; We soon shall be free.

Waiting On November

Americana music born in the wilds of Southern New Jersey and steeped in the bewilderment of the Middle East. Check out when Jersey comes to Jaffa -- "A multicultural sharing of sounds that pay homage to his homeland" - Sing Out! Folk Magazine

Like American music, you know the kind that gets you foot stompin' and shakin'?

Jersey born and Jaffa living, Ami Yares plays American roots music and a bunch of other fine stuff. Expect something like that good 'ole American music found in not so easy to find places - a little rock and roll, little country, little bluegrass, and lots of jersey.

In this swiftly moving world, slow down, speed up, or just sit with this music that Ami and his co-conspirators have created to make meaning in this mad, mad world.
