Did you catch Jose Gonzalez's new album Vestiges & Claws? It came out earlier this year, and it's probably one of the best folk releases of the year (though for fans that'll come as little surprise...).
"Stories We Build, Stories We Tell" comes ...

There's something fun about this track that I just couldn't resist.
"Well She's My Love" doesn't have a uniquely modern sound, instead harking back to a Michael Franks era.
