Snakes and Waterfalls Porch lights, on distant ridges dark. Rock lined valleys, ringing with every bark. From flat water bottom to wind blown timber tall. Its my land, of snakes and waterfalls. 16 score and 7 years my blood’s called home. To all the crimson clay and the old roads that I roam. This place might be curse’d after all. But its my land, of snakes and waterfalls. And I know, that when a distant shore’s before me Oh how my poor heart aches, for ever hollow that I forsake I’ve been trying to run since I could crawl But I’m bound, to snakes and waterfalls. Blue cave water and canebrakes forever call, me on home, to snakes and waterfalls.

After Hours 03:44
After Hours I’ve got danger on my finger tips I’ve got danger on my clothes, lord almighty keep danger on its toes. I go out and slink into the darkest depths of the night, lord almighty keep danger on tonight. So keep practicing what you’ve been preaching, stay behind your lock’ed door, I don’t care if you don’t slink around no more. Just gaze upon the moon above and this you may never doubt, while you’re sleeping danger’s all about. After hours, I’ll be seeing you after hours.

Lonely Like Me Oh I tossed and I turned, I walked the cold floor too I looked out every window, I dreaded seeing you I felt the pace of my patience, wither and blue And my heart started leaking in my chest like a new found wound I hope someday that you’re lonely, lonely like me. I hope someday that you’re filled up, with all the ghosts that you never saw in me, my heart couldn’t hold you, I only wish that you’d have let him be, and someday I hope that you’re lonely, lonely like me. My mind it unravelled, my spine turned to clay Every second of distance, seemed a lifetime to me Though the cold night did claim you, I only wish that I’d made myself sane And I dread that moment when your echo finally fades away. I hope someday that you’re lonely, lonely like me. I hope someday that you’re filled up, with all the ghosts that you never saw in me, my heart couldn’t hold you, I only wish that you’d have let him be, and someday I hope that you’re lonely, lonely like me.

Empty Yodel no. 0 I love you, for no reason its true, you say you’re empty I’ve been feeling empty too. You say you’re lonely, I’m a lonely boy too. And its not fair, to ask you to care. And its not right, so I’ll stay, out of sight. I love you, for no reason its true, you say you’re lonely, I’m a lonely boy too.

about

Recorded live to tape and firmly below sea level at Mashed Potato Records in New Orleans, Louisiana. This is three mics, two tracks, and two afternoons sweating it out in the oppressive May heat with some very patient pals while the nearby Mississippi river churned overhead. Are you Okay?

about

Nick Shoulders Fayetteville, Arkansas

Here to put the "Try" in country. Wielding a high yodel and whistle crafted from a lifetime chasing lizards through the Ozark hills, Nick combines his family's deep ties to southern traditional music with years singing to empty street corners to create this hybridized form of raucous country music: born of some dark holler and bred to be stomped into the New Orleans dancefloors it now calls home. ... more
