Jacaranda Tree

It's been a while since a singer-songwriter and his album has imbedded itself so deeply into my life. I saw him at the Q cafe before I came home to Canby for the break, and it turns out he is currently recording in Portland. This man (Josh Garrels) has his words right; he has been reminding me all Winter break to Love you and to Love me. He also has his voice right, which sits some where between Bon Iver, Ray Lamontagne, and my friend Luke Bogue.

This song is a poem his wife wrote, and it gets me every time.

This song is about the birth of his baby girl, and it gets me every time. (only a real man can sing about babies:)

He is a poet, a midwestern boy, a man of God. I'll let you find the rest of his stuff.
