Sierra Ferrell, 'In Dreams' // GemsOnVHS™

Показать описание

I know everyone was clamoring for another sharing of Sierra and her unique jingle-jangle sound. Well, when I was in New Orleans, I went to a hazy late night old-time show. Accordions blared on a stage lit only by bonfire and shrouded by a giant treehouse, like something out a childhood fairy tale. People danced and whirled, drank and laughed.

None other than Sierra herself blessed my eyes, unchanged since i'd seen her last, enjoying the fire, company and music. Trying to track her down was always a failing effort, so finding her in the wild was always one of those things you're both surprised and not surprised by at the same time. It's just the way of things.

She told me she'd soon be in Nashville, and was surprised to hear so many wanted to hear more. She said of course we'd make another. Though she wasn't there when she said she'd be, she showed up sometime. Sometime being as good a time as any, we made this recording one rainy afternoon with Joseph Faison IV on guitar.

She sounds like an old vinyl record crackling in the living room of a farm house built in 1933.

Remember the first time you clicked on this?

She is one of those artists that kill it live but producers and recorders have a hard time capturing the lightning in a bottle

This version is so much better than the new album version. I think she’s at her best live and acoustic, either by herself or with a couple of other players. She doesn’t need fancy production.

Found a short clip of this on tiktok and IMMEDIATELY came to listen to it all. Holy sh.. just wow! No words, it's so beautiful

This song sounds like summer with your love: bike rides on hidden trails, swimming holes, picking wildflowers, fishing in hidden ponds, picnics by the lake, the warm sun dancing through the trees 😍🥹

That voice sounds like it's coming through a time machine made up of old gramophone parts. Beautiful.

I'm not even exaggerating when I say that I've listened to this over 50 times in the past month, I legit can't get it out of my head

I don’t usually notice lyrics but holy shit. This is just…

Won't you sit down, you know I love you honey
And you look so tired
I know it's hard how we're thrown into this life
Then one day we must die
But that river will flow on
Even after we're all long gone
That river will flow on
Take me with you now before I'm one

That’s fucking poetry
