There are some days that I just don’t have it in me to write. The ability isn’t limitless; it comes in waves, quick bursts. Sometimes I believe I could write about any song that is sent our way; most of the time, however, that’s not the case. Sometimes good songs languish in our inbox simply because I can’t find the correct words.
We were sent an email about the most recent Phosphorescent album back at the start of August, back when it would have felt more appropriate, at least seasonally. With the weather turning, “The Mermaid Parade” doesn’t feel quite like it should. It’s meant for listening out somewhere on the highways of America, longing for someone who’s no longer yours. It would have felt better with the windows of your car down, heading to the next town on the map. It’s dusty roots rock, vintage Americana, etc.
Phosphorescent’s most recent album, Here’s To Taking It Easy, was released back in May, and the band has been out touring ever since its release. They’ve been out on the road with the likes of J. Tillman and played alongside Wilco; they’ve got a few dates on the West Coast toward the end of October before they head over to Europe for a couple of weeks, where they’ve sold out 11 shows already. If you can do it, take in a concert of theirs.
