Thank you so much.
This is Phil Hanseroth on the bass.
Tim Hanseroth on the guitar.
Those are the Hanseroth twins.
[B] We have Josh Newman on the cello [A#] and Jeb Eagle Bowes on [G#] the mandolin and violin.
[F#]
[B] We're going to play you guys a song that [G#] we wrote long before we made Bear Creek,
but it really sort of took on its life in the studio when we were making this album
because Josh and Jeb here, they [A] got together and [D#] they came up with a string
arrangement on their own that's really beautiful.
And that's why I'd love to play that one now.
It's really sad.
I apologize in advance.
