Memoryhouse: Sleep Patterns
Wait indoors
Slept to waste the time
Until I hear the sound
Of your footsteps climbing
Up the porch as it rains
Trembling voices propagate these rooms
I keep my eyes closed and listen to the trains
Pull the sound
What lingers through this space that fills this house around.
Was I alone in thinking something good?
Water stains
On the pillow where I lay my head
Do they say that I was sleeping
When away do I
Wait shadows climb window fading days
As I trace the light that flickers through the room
Pull the sound
What lingers through this space that fills this house around.
Was I alone in thinking something good?
This song is so gorgeous is nearly gives me chills. Lately, I can’t get enough of Memoryhouse.

Every time I come to Baltimore, I have this desire to stand outside of Michael Phelps’ house, wearing arm floaties, carrying a kiddie pool, and challenge him to a duel. At the very least, I think it’d make a great skit. I don’t even know if Phelps lives here, that’s just what my friend Tara told me. Anyhow, as it’s past midnight on the East Coast, and her boyfriend and I are going on a three mile run at 6:00 a.m., I’m going to drift off on their couch while listening to Memoryhouse, but not before I leave you with Light Pollution’s “Good Feelings” video.

Over the past few months, I’ve fallen in love with Memoryhouse - the musical endeavor of Evan Abeele and Denise Nouvion - and this sparse cover of Grizzly Bear’s “Foreground” solidified my undying affection for everything they’ve done. They’ve signed to Suicide Squeeze, home of Minus The Bear, and you can pre-order a single from them for now, get the Caregiver / Heirloom single on iTunes, and / or find their music all over the internet.
