the pines, “Hanging from the earth,”
from: Above the prarie, 2016
A now defunct trio begun in Iowa and Minneapolis during 2006. Vocalist Benson Ramsay and his pianist brother Alex along with guitarist/vocalist David Huckfelt forged a convincing and heartfelt sound during their tenure. Their pallet was the landscape and history of the midwest welded to the currency of the human predicament. Benson’s wearisome and forlorn vocals carry this song. High level soul searching.
