Great song, but why does RP broadcast this one only ? It gives the idea that the man wrote just one song.

I've seen James recent tours.  I highly recommend checking him out if he comes by your way.  He's good solo, but fantastic with his band!  Great interaction with the audience and captivating when perfoming.

Had to stop working, AGAIN, to find out who performs this beautiful, catchy song.

RP, you are so bad for my productivity, but I love you  too much to stop!

Yeah, mix a little Fleet Foxes in with some Great Lakes Swimmers and a skosh of Andrew Bird...still, his sound is distinctive enough even if it's of a time. Then again, it's the rare—and sometimes out of step—artist whose sound isn't of its time. I like this a lot.

With the references to Fleet Foxes and Woodstock it just further proves there's nothing new under the sun.  But it still gets an 8 from me if for no other reason than it reminds me of the Woodstock era and the changes wrought at that time in our society.
 

If you like this, the whole CD is worth checking out.

Just picked up this album after hearing this song on RP... very enjoyable from start to finish. A few listens to the album and this is the standout track on it for me.

Some very nice atmospheric sounds in both this one and Emmylou's "The Road" which preceded — I think these work very well together!

Another new song by a new (at least, to me) artist on RP, and a goodie, IMO - an initial 8 from the Nottingham jury. As well as eclectic, this station is always fresh and surprising.

 
I agree completely.  Liking this song quite a bit on first listen - 7, with potential...
