"I think what was happening with this record in the microcosm is we
had to stop trying so overtly hard," Rawlings said.
"Because we'd done a lot of the mental work you have to do but we
weren't ever relaxing enough to sort of let the thought come."

"That was the first thing I feel like was absolutely settled about this
record was, OK this is going to be just the two of us, you know, I feel
like we respond very well to a certain amount of isolationism."
"Harvest" isn't a drastic departure from the folk sound that's made
them such a staple in the Americana music community. They are still
dealing with melancholy themes, and showcase lyrics that seem to
have jumped off the pages of a John Steinbeck novel.

microphones" as opposed to using mics on the individual
instruments and voices and recording them separately.

We're glad you were able to get that off your chest, mettle6.

Well then, either you don't get out much, or most people still have no idea who Welch is.

You are the first person I have ever heard say such a thing. To each his own I guess.
