there are some days you feel like your tongue’s been cut out. you can’t find words, and the ones that find you come out all wrong. days like that music is the safest option. nothing happens in this video. but the narrative is beautiful. the felice boys have a real knack of telling a story. of making a song so much more than something just to listen to. there’s a mournfulness underlying most of their work, something wistful, uncapturable. they remind me of being a kid, dreaming of running away with huck finn and tom sawyer, playing outside ‘til dusk falls, scratched knees and berry stained fingers and trying to reconcile all of that with growing up, the losing and gaining of freedom all at the same time.
