“This timeless tale of loss at sea has bounced around my head since I was a child first hearing it on the stereo of my parents’ car, becoming obsessed with the Washington DC-based band The Johnson Mountain Boys. I have always loved the sea and spent a blissful Summer living on Ocracoke Island in the Outer Banks. Landlocked as we are today, stopping over at any coastal town I love to look out at the shoreline waves; how they roll and then come crashing down. It has always been a very powerful force to me as a beach lover and ponderer of life out on the sea. What waves exist for those who are out there beyond the horizon? Our condensed version of this song comes from The Carter Family, recorded the 14th of October, 1941 in New York.”--BV
