The Closest thing to Gospel, Here, we will start with the end. This is the last song that St.Lawrence Warehouse Company played together, this is a one take, add-on that we did after 5 hard days in the studio this may. We Hope you like it, and we hope you sing along. This is for all the people who have supported, and continue supporting us, thank you fans! We cannot wait to play for you again! Here are the lyrics:

I aint, been back for long
to the country where I come from
where I first heard the song,
where I first heard the song.
She pardons without words
and in the jokin' and the mainstay, 
she now knows what she deserves.
as my language becomes stern. 
Childen, please don't get sick.
in the setting of the sun, 
you will learn what makes you tick
as my language becomes thick.
O my Belle, please dont get sad.
And the bluenosed son of prophesy 
reminds you of what you had. 
Coppers! Wont you listen to me now?
Take the road a lot less traveled where theres lots more room to make, 
oneself. 
Put those old and battered memories,
on the old and battered shelf.
Then you jump and run about, 
as I'm sipping on my stout, 
Theres an orphanage just out there, 
on the corner. 
And I aint your coroner anymore. 
I aint been back for long,
to the country where I come from 
where I first heard the song,
where I first heard the song. 

Bells

Every Part of this track was recorded years apart. Maybe that is why is sounds so raw. The First Track that I've ever played cello on, and also kind of beatle-esque in that the bass is predominantly in one ear and the vocals and guitar in the other. 
Enjoy!

Hey Lady

Many Moons ago, When Sonia Deleo and I were on Tour across Alberta and BC we recorded this song in Osoyoos. It was fun.

Blake & Sonia - Late Last Night

A cover of one of my favourite tunes by Arcade Fire. One thing I love the most about this tune is that it changes perspectives. Thank you Jordan Abrey for Recording me in your huge cathedral, how he pays the rent I've no idea. 

Crown of Love

Track Written By Jonathon Blake and performed by Elephant House.

The Bottom Bottle

Smoke Signals

Since I Started Livin' 
I've been comfortably sound. 
Yet somehow, I've always found some way to frown. 
Things have been just given
and they're still being given now, 
and I dont know how to feel with this 
Silver Spoon in my mouth. 
Yeah I dont know how to feel with this Silver Spoon in my mouth.
Yeah nevermind the reasoning, 
Nevermind the Rhymes, 
I've been given some affection and its grown like yeast through time.
Some of my friends,
Well they come from broken homes.
There was hitting and abusing and there wasnt much love shown. 
Now one smokes his cigarette, 
and he smokes until hes full. 
He says:
"You'll never feel, or Know whats in my soul."
But thats all I would like to ever know.
Cause I wanna know your pain and why you choose these additives!
I wanna know 'bout your step-pa, and how much you hate him!
If I was the catholic church I'd tell him he had sinned!
No matter how much penance he bought, 
God would still hate him.
Thats right, I speak for God. 
And after all that livin' sound I became comfortably numb.
And after school was over, went into the world blind, deaf and dumb.
I didnt know what I wanted, I only heard the tunes.
And then in University, I met some others, with the same views.
Embracing cynicism, Bitterness, life cant be over now.
Cept that fucking school jaded me at age 19 somehow.
I left those angry stoners without noticing my wake.
I left those commie - wannabees, who take and take and take.
I moved across the country and I try to settle now.

and Still dont know how to feel with the 
Silver Spoon in my mouth.

Cause I let it smack my teeth and they're about to all fall out. 

Words and Music by Jonathon Blake Unruh " Blake Unruly" recorded in august 2011 with The Soapbox Assembly. Tariq Sattaur and Joe Massinon of Vieux Vinyl Productions. 


Silver Spoon

Yesterday (with the children)

A nostalgic song, Imagine your driving down a highway. 

We drive out of town,
Mom says yeah we forgot something lets turn around.
Dad grumbles and sighs 
“ahh man I just barely opened my eyes, but yes dear fine”

The second time around, we all listen to a tape and I get lost in the clouds
The fields roll by, we have no wants and we know why.
Cause we know how to fly.

And as the land connects to skies
All around us are all the lines we’ve drawn
Just wiped away
Earth Stars and Sun
And all around us are so many waves we’ve made.
Just rollin’ out from us.
And they’re about to crest.

We drive for a few hours,
all the kids are going crazy so our parents put us out,
On the corner of the highway, 
the yellow fields are our sides,
the wind it howls in its own key, 
and to me, 

It all feels fine.

Dad peels out on the pavement, 
as he drives off with us chasin’.
Leaves us scared for a moment now,
Then he stops beside an old decrepit house,
makes us run a mile,
and when we get there, we’re all tuckered out.

And as the land connects to skies, 
all around us are all the lines we’ve drawn,
just wiped away 
Earth, Stars and Sun
And all around us are so many waves we’ve made,
Just rollin’ out from us,
and they’re about to crest. 

And they’re about to crest.

O holy holy holy innocence,
Memories that have blown off into the wind,
O bless us bless us bless us where we’ve been
The place we’ve been that we won’t see again.
