NPR has always surprised me with the quality of artists they bring in. I have never heard of this man before. It's brilliant and beautiful. NPR is doing something right with these Tiny Desk Concerts. This man is a beautiful human being creating outstanding music. Thank you for shedding some light into this slowly dimming music industry.

I had forgotten about this wonderful human's music and only remembered the feeling, his general appearance, and that he had a tiny desk concert. It took a look of searching and it was doubly worth it, not only did I re-find Strand of Oaks, I was able to find many other new to me and forgotten to me musicians. For Stand of Oaks, the refrans: "I don't want to start all over again" and "I was lonely but was having fun" were anchors for me when in the depths of addiction, and to revisit them now as a sober person on the other end, I ache with gratitude. Thank you Timothy Showalter!

I liked your music already, but this set just takes the admiration to a whole 'nother level. TY for saying what I feel, but can't express in word and song. TY NPR for hosting this talented fella.

"JM", a Jason Molina-tribute. In this song Jason includes Neil Young: kzitem.info/news/bejne/u4-Ln2lucXR6Z2k "It's been hard doing anything Winter stuck around so long I kept trying anyhow and I'm still trying now Just to keep working just to keep working I remember when it didn't use to be so hard This used to be impossible A new season has to begin I can feel it leaning in whispering "Nothing's lonely now" Nothing anymore in pain A tall shadow dressed how secrets always dress When they want everyone to know that they're around Leaning in whispering "my friend over there Don't know what he's talking about" Did you really believe That everyone makes it out? Almost no one makes it out "Think I'll pack it in and buy a pick-up Take it down to L.A. Find a place to call my own and try to fix up. Start a brand new day. The woman I'm thinking of, she loved me all up But I'm so down today She's so fine she's in my mind. I hear her callin'. See the lonely boy, out on the weekend Trying to make it pay." - Neil Young - Out on the Weekend (Harvest) I'm going to use that street to hide From that human doubt To hide from what was shining And has finally burned us out But if no one makes it out How come you're talking to one right now For once almost was good enough"

It's the feeling in his voice. Gram Parsons' voice always seemed like he was crying out for help. This guys' voice is a little different but it's about the feeling in it. The Replacements' singer's voice always sounded sort of desperate. It's about the feeling in his voice.
