For the next couple weeks I'll be tagging along on tour with Drew Grow and the Pastors' Wives as they open for The Head and The Heart's national tour. I won't be writing from the road, but I'll be sending postcards. The first few are on their way to Seattle now. p.s. If you're an out-of-state [...]
I remember the night I saw Drew Grow and the Pastors' Wives last October well. I was in the throws of concert burnout and an unrelated sugar coma.

In addition to being generally hyperaware of everything around me in life, especially subtexts and undercurrents, I notice an acute sharpening of my senses every time the seasons change. It's why I make you guys these seasonal mixes: as everything in the natural world [...]
