This month we’re bringing you music you’ve probably never heard before but should, and we’re doing it with a St. Louis theme because the city is celebrating its 250th birthday this year.
Today’s selection comes from a band called Salisbury, a project masterminded by Eric Lysaght. I suppose you could call their style folk or indie rock, if you are into labels and all that, I just call it good music with good storytelling. They released the song Mississippi River in 2007 on their self-titled CD; it’s a melancholy song with vivid images of a life along the river.
You can hear the rest of the CD at Spotify, too.
