My Mind Studio vs Live

I was just wondering why “My Mind” differs so much live from the studio single. I personally prefer the studio version and there is only one time i’ve found of them playing it live. All other live sessions feature a different more mellow version (still great). I’m trying to figure out the chords in the original but my ears are not great and some visual cues would help. Also I think original version sounds great live 🤤.

Lake Superior Vinyl

Was there ever a record released for Lake Superior? It’s one of my favourite songs and I would love to have it on vinyl.

Lake Superior Download

I would love nothing more than to buy Lake Superior from the band but nowhere, from iTunes to Bandcamp, seems to have the song available to purchase! Would anyone who previously bought the song be willing to share their download with me? I've been really missing not having this song easily accessible from my phone!

One of my fave tracks from the new record is Sunshine. Even my 3 year old kid loves it.

Thoughts on new album?

After my first listen, I have to say the second half of the album stood out to me a lot more than the first half that included the singles. The slower songs really were quite beautiful and I always love Dan’s voice getting to shine through. I don’t think anything will really top their first album, but I’m sure this one will resonate even more than it already has.

I preordered the vinyl and received it yesterday and I am absolutely loving it. Great design, great sound, great experience.

Standouts for me are: -River -Love Doesn’t Live Here Anymore -A Man Will Do Wrong

What are your thoughts?

It’s out

I love it. Hope this isn’t the last of them we get but would be a great send off.

Third song they've released this year. A full album has to be coming soon, right?

The Arc performed @ Newport Folk Festival 2016 with Swift on backup vocals (one of their final live performances)

I was there! I was actually a few rows behind the guy filming this. I listen to this every now and then cause it’s one of the good live sounding performances they have on YouTube.

It’s also one of the final live performances they have with swift on backup box instead of the mariachi girls. Sadly I didn’t see this concert through because the Flight of The Concords were performing (overlap) on the main stage.

Chains Of Love VS Bullet In The Brain by The Black Keys

Is it just me or does the intro guitar on Chains Of Love sound just like what they did to the guitar work on Bullet In The Brain? I cant find any posts linking those two and the rest of the internet isn't very helpful either but something about that is picking my nerves out

Does anybody know where I can find the piano chords to searching the blue?

I’m trying to get some friends together to play this song and I play the piano part but I can’t find anything. If anyone could help me out that would be great. I know it’s short but I want to have it down perfectly.

Hidden face on Yours, Dreamily. Album artwork?

Was just spinning the vinyl album and admiring the artwork more closely and realized there is a man's face hidden in a flower just below the big red flower to the right of the skull. Does anyone recognize who this is/ why this was included in the artwork? Just curious, thanks!

Yours, Dreamily.
