the senators // this old war

If you haven’t got The Senators on your bucolic folk music radar then I implore you to check out their debut album Harsher than Whiskey/Sweeter than Wine. The Senators are definitely in league with several of my favorites bands occupying the folk genre, i.e. Blind Pilot, Fleet Foxes, Mumford & Sons, The Lumineers and Horsefeathers (just to name a few). The song This Old War is taken from the three-song Cross of Gold EP in anticipation of The Senators’ (yet untitled) forthcoming sophomore release. So, draw nigh to their brand of luminescent rusticity. It’ll spill into your bloodstream like moonshine, and rise like sweet woodsmoke into the swaying boughs of your affection. Peace.
