Romance Isn't Scared
Ivan Howard and Kelly Crisp, traded as The Rosebuds between 2001 and 2014, releasing five albums on Merge Records, one on Western Vinyl, and several more through their own digital imprint. From time to time, if the clouds are hanging particularly low and the heart feels a little heavier than usual, I reach for a favourite old song and let it wrap itself around me like a comfortable old blanket. This is one such song.
The Rosebuds - Blue Bird

No kidding, Swede, you have hit upon one of my all-time favorite songs. When these two divorced I figured they would be all done as a musical duo too. Instead, they made an album about the split that was almost as good as Birds Make Good Neighbors... almost.
