Went to the Florence + the Machine concert in Indianapolis on Sunday and really wanted to sing something. Probably my favorite song to play off of Ceremonials outside of Heartlines. 

Anyway, yeah this was just whatever. :) 



Shake It Out Acoustic Cover

Well I finally finished it! I'm no expert in mixing, but hopefully this sounds alright. I added a bar or two and also added another guitar track.

If I can find a bassist to contribute, I might consider recording them in, but for now this will be the last that I touch this for awhile!

Lyrics?:
Understanding sunlight, please send me on home 
for the days are growing longer and longer for some 
but for all that we take, we learn we must go 
onward into the escape we call home

Unabashed wind won't you flow next to me 
let me feel as free as you will my soul to be 
protect me from the darkness i feel beneath my wings 
for it leads me down a path where no light is sure to be

Oh won't you free me 
Oh won't you free me 
my life was long since trapped beneath the grasp of this willow tree 
so sad and long forgotten, no men had ever followed me 
oh won't you free me from the grasp of the willow tree 
oh won't you free me from the grasp of the willow tree

Rain falls down to cleanse me from the morning mold 
It's hands try to hold my heart but a hard one is hard to hold 
The tree that once protected me now crunches under foot 
it's branches once so mighty now cage me where i stood

Oh won't you free me 
Oh won't you free me 
my life was long since trapped beneath the grasp of this willow tree 
so sad and long forgotten, no men had ever followed me 
oh won't you free me from the grasp of the willow tree

Oh la la laaaaaaa laa laaa 
Oh la la laaaaa laa laaaaa

Oh won't you free me 
Oh won't you free me 
my life was long since trapped beneath the grasp of this willow tree 
so sad and long forgotten, no men had ever followed me 
oh won't you free me from the grasp of the willow tree 
oh won't you free me from the grasp of the willow tree

Please, send me your thoughts on it! Feedback is much appreciated!

The Grasp of the Willow Tree

Me messing around just playing stupid stuff. I might make something of this because I like the progression, but mainly this was me kind of getting a feel for Presonus Studio one
