Meadowlarks, by Fleet Foxes.
Definitely my best Fleet Foxes take so far, I think. This song popped into my head this morning and I stuck with it. All the usual confusion about how to sing and record harmonies applies. Had to check if the chords/fingering on this one was really as easy as it seemed (and I still didn’t get it perfect, but it’s alright), but there was no special weird tuning for this.
The first Fleet Foxes album is a reminder that I really don’t remember where I heard the first Fleet Foxes album, or why I bought it, but I do remember that I first really played it for the family on our first drive to the Outer Banks in 2012, and I’m particularly reminded of one of the stretches of road near the Virginia-North Carolina border that kinda overflows with expectation, because it feels like you’re getting there even though there are still hours of drive to go, especially if it’s a Saturday and you’re going all the way to Corolla, like we did the first year.
Family road trip next weekend, so I guess I’m bringing the guitar?
