Mess Is Mine - Vance Joy Cover

“Trials, Troubles, Tribulations” is an American bluegrass gospel song written by Estil C. Ball. Here it is performed by Sounds of the South, a project featuring Justin Vernon (Bon Iver, Volcano Choir), Sharon Van Etten, Megafaun, Matthew E. White, and Fight the Big Bull. The project, organized by Megafaun, initially appeared at Duke Performances in North Carolina and MusicNOW in Cincinnati, Ohio, and subsequently traveled to Australia's Vivid LIVE at the Sydney Opera House.

This is the first song from the compilation MusicNOW: 10 Years set for digital release on March 10th, 2015, just prior to the 10th edition of this eclectic music festival of the same name founded in 2006 by Bryce Dessner of The National. MusicNOW Festival set out with a mission to present the best in contemporary music, offer artists an opportunity to take risks, commission new work and attempt innovative collaborations.

The 16 track live album highlights festival-only surprises like Fleet Foxes leader Robin Pecknold playing the traditional song “Silver Dagger” for the first time, the debut performance of Grizzly Bear’s “While You Wait for the Others”, the premiere of Sufjan Stevens’ “The Owl & The Tanager”, as well as collaborations featuring Owen Pallett, Justin Vernon, Sharon van Etten, Tinariwen and Dirty Projectors.

Pre-orders for digital and physical formats will begin on Tuesday February 17th at http://bit.ly/musicnow10

“Many of my most significant memories as a musician have taken place in Cincinnati during the MusicNOW Festival over the last 10 years, “ says founder Bryce Dessner. “When we started, we were driven to create an intimate music festival that was as much a creative refuge for the artists as it is for the audience to partake in intimate and rare performances. We have celebrated works in progress and new commissions, new collaborations and detailed music of all kinds regardless of genre or popularity. “ 

Dessner is widely known as the guitarist for The National. Those a little more in the know are aware of Bryce’s work in performance projects (such as The Long Count) and classical composition (including his work with Brassland label artists Clogs). MusicNOW was founded as a way for Bryce to explore all facets of his artistic interests and has served as a collaborative laboratory that provides a friendly and supportive audience for internationally renowned artists. Through the years, Dessner has guided MusicNOW to become the premiere event for blurring the imagined lines that divide musical genres. 

This year’s MusicNOW festival will take place on March 11-15. For the full schedule and more details visit http://www.musicnowfestival.org

Produced By Jourdain Casper.



Ghosty-Ghost — “The Last Residual Hour”
A quiet, cinematic Folk / Indie piece built around intimacy, memory, and seasonal change. Fingerpicked acoustic guitar carries the pulse, while sparse piano chords and mournful cello swell beneath the verses and bridge, creating a slow-burn atmosphere of warmth fading into cold.
“The Last Residual Hour” captures that fragile moment between light and dark — the final glow of autumn before winter takes hold. Breath on glass, dew on spiderwebs, heavy air, and borrowed warmth all live in this song. It’s about holding comfort for just a second longer, knowing it won’t last, and finding beauty in that impermanence.
Minimal vocals, breathy hums, and soft ad-libs drift through the mix, leaving space for reflection. This track is meant for late evenings, cold mornings, long drives, and moments when time feels suspended.
Genre: Folk / Indie
Mood: Melancholic, warm, reflective, cinematic
Instrumentation: Acoustic Guitar (fingerpicked), Cello, Piano, subtle synth textures
🎧 Best experienced with headphones.

Be Your Man

Contrary to popular belief, and what your ears may tell you, the songs posted on this blog were not recorded by Fleet Foxes, but rather one dude who impersonates Fleet Foxes using overdubbing and lots of reverb.
