LYRICS:

Guess that you'll be leaving now.
Even in your deepest doubt,
have you got it all….
figured out?

The smell of you is on me still.
The night died way too young.
This feeling is alive and well
Even in your deepest dread,
have you got a fault… 
line in your head?

I was waiting for someone,
to turn my world around.
You came in the summer,
and time was winding down.

Wonder what you're thinking now.
Even in your deepest doubt,
have you got it all… 
figured out?

Why do you, why do you, why do you lie?
Not coming, not coming back.
How could you, how could you, how could you lie?
You're not coming, not coming back.

ABOUT FLORA CASH:

Cole and Shpresa met on SoundCloud; where each had been uploading music independently, in early 2012. At first, their love was simply for the other's music. That quickly turned into something more, however, and it wasn’t long before the two began a relationship on Skype which lasted more than five months. In June 2012, Shpresa flew to Cole in Minneapolis, from Stockholm, and stayed until the couple returned to Sweden two months later. It was there that Flora Cash was born.

Fans of contemporary vocalist duos including Angus and Julia Stone, Of Monsters and Men (OMAM), and First Aid Kit as well as those of previous generations including Johnny Cash / June Carter Cash, Sonny and Cher, Buckingham Nicks and Simon & Garfunkel will find something to love in the pop folk stylings and authentic love-born melodies of Flora Cash.

That's just the world

The Way We Fall

I’ve been thinking about music and its place in the world. I’ve been thinking about artistic space and our willingness to occupy it. And I’ve been thinking, again, about success, what it means and to whom I ask for validation of it. These aren’t new thoughts exactly, but they are thoughts I have taken greater root this new year.

It feels important to say out loud that I am not competing with or against any other musician for your attention. I refuse to submerge my artistic practice in the barren, cold waters of marketing speak. Branding is for cows. And while of course I want to grow my audience, to reach further and farther, to travel and make new connections through my songs, what is meaningful to me is the depth more than the breadth. 

Experience and practice, the love of those this music has reached, the support of other musicians, have gifted me a perspective that brooks less doubt about the value of what I do these days. This is a kind of success. Thank you to everyone who nourishes me. 

My work for this year, hand in hand with the exciting and messy business of releasing a new album, is to more deeply embrace gratitude and practice some radical acceptance; to take a look around and realise this may be as good as it gets, and know that it is enough. The work continues. 

My new album 'To Everything a Season' is out on 11 October. 

Big love

The Magic Lantern / Jamie x 

"Excellent, intriguing and compelling, a man to watch"
-The Guardian

"Something very, very special"
- Lauren Laverne, BBC 6 Music

"Gorgeous, beautiful, this stopped me in my tracks. Slightly surreal, in all the right ways" - Jamie Cullum, BBC Radio 2

"Every now and again you come across a piece of music that will completely take your breath away. It might not be instant, but it will. The Magic Lantern’s ‘Holding Hands’ is one of those pieces of music. 8/10"
- Fortitude Magazine

"Creating something truly mesmerizing and incredibly unique. Jamie’s ability to combine jazz and folk into something ethereal and is undeniably spellbinding. Fans of Grizzly Bear and Chet Baker will feel at home here."
- The Vinyl District
