With Dawes’ fourth album, “All Your Favorite Bands” , came out just over a month ago, I knew this was going to be another of my favourite albums, and couldn’t help but keep the title track on repeat. Listening to Taylor Goldsmith sing, “And may all of your favorite bands stay together,”
While I didn’t think it was possible for this song to be more emotional, the release of the video for “All Your Favorite Bands” proved wrong. The stripped-down, live version gave us a raw look at the sentiment behind the beautiful lyrics.
“I would love for someone wishing me well to put it in the terms of ‘may all your favorite bands stay together,'” Goldsmith, “That would be a real friend. That person would know what truly matters. To me, the statement of ‘All Your Favorite Bands’ immediately gets down to a highly personal and singular part of anybody in a way that few other concepts can. So that’s why we named our record after that song.” Check out the alternative take of ” Things Happen” as well , Dawes are one of the best American bands over the last few years.
Watch the video above and be sure to share it with someone that you appreciate.
