The Great Lake Swimmers - Your Rocky Spine

Link.

Favorite lyrics: Could you feel my footsteps? And would you shatter, would you shatter?

'Your Rocky Spine' is a fantastic story and song, told through banjo and analogies. It's a reverse personification - turning a body into mountains and lakes - and the lyrics stringed together to express that is poetry. Folk music in general has grown in popularity for its ability to connect, with Mumford & Sons being the most obvious example, followed up by bands like Fleet Foxes and Sea Wolf, who add modernized sound to their tracks. There's something about the genre of folk music that's able to express emotion in a way separate from others, and The Great Lake Swimmers add growth to the brand.
