What makes your songs so transcendently powerful on the CD Driftless and the new EP Black Fire?
Songs like Blue Tubes and Kaddish from Driftless which were my favorites; they seemed so delectable irresistible as well written tunes. Thanks. I hope they are powerful. Some people listen for a beat and a melody and their head takes them places as they listen. I do too. But we hope people read the lyrics. These songs are usually about struggles (like all of us) but sometimes with g-d thrown in the mix. For instance, Kaddish (named after a beautiful, traditional Jewish prayer said for a loved one who has passed away) is a true story. Before my mom died who I had been very close to, I had three dreams that she was going to die. We really did get a letter from her the day we found out. The last time I saw her, I knew it was the last. So in the song when I sing Now that she is gone, it’s finally you and me and youre invisible, and all I want is once to see is a dialogue with G-d. people will get what they want from these tunes, and I hope they (and us) get more. BS: Would you describe you
