Bonny Light Horseman - Buzzin' Fly (official audio)

Astral folk trio Bonny Light Horseman return with a cover of Tim Buckley's "Buzzin' Fly," out now on 37d03d.

"I first heard this song when I was in my early 20's, on a mix cassette that my then girlfriend's cool older brother made me. I was instantly entranced - there was something so evocative about the arrangement, the transcendental and romantic lyrical imagery, and Buckley's deeply soulful voice. I knew one of these days I'd cover it. Took me twenty-plus years to find the right situation to do it. Josh and Anaïs (and the stellar assemblage of players on this recording) took this song in a new direction that made me fall in love with it all over again. Long live buzzin' flies, ringing mountains, flowing rivers, and seabirds who knew your name!" — Eric D. Johnson
