How perfect is an Elvis Perkins song in late February? I revisit his album Ash Wednesday often, and every time I discover a new song that resonates with a certain perfection that feels like he wrote and recorded the song for the moment which it came on. Tonight that song is "It's Only Me".
I had the pleasure of getting a listen of his new album due out March 10. The beautiful thing about Elvis Perkins is that his albums are far from disposable and I expect to unravel his new songs at an incredibly slow pace. Not unlike his old-soul quality, Perkins allows you to slow the whirling of each day with his lullabies.
