Bird that doesn't Sing for Me - Single

from Susquehanna Dream - EP by Roger Brainard

supported by

Shane Larmand This is a very lovely acoustic tune with cool knocking echoey sounds happening behind the pretty acoustic guitar and gritty vocal. All of this reminds me of Gordon Lightfoot and that's high praise indeed.

thekathrynm Layers of lyrics wrapped up in a hauntingly beautiful sound. Favorite track: Bird that doesn't Sing for Me - Single.

lyrics

Here I am awake again before the light
Feeling very different but nothing has changed
The silence of a sleeping world pours over me
As I listen to the sound of a bird that doen't sing

For 20 nights a whippoorwill has sung for me
Calling to the echoes in my heart
Stopped my sleep from stealing all my precious time
Tonight the air is full of the song she doesn’t sing

I hope that she has found what she was looking for
I know her dreams were wrapped up in her song
I wish that she could sing me of her happiness
Tonight my mind is full of the song she doesn’t sing for me

Deconstructing a sacrosanct genre like Americana takes guts. Not to mention imagination and clever musicianship. Yet, The Cave Slinkies manage it, and do so with style and grace, whilst keeping true to the concept of Americana. Mark G

There's quite a strong Fleetwood Mac vibe running through this EP, especially on the song Tell Me Now, and The Ticking Tide as well. These two solo artists, both already creators of wonderful music in their own rights, work beautifully together. I'm hoping for more great songs from them in the future. Storm of Crows
