Cover art for Your Rocky Spine lyrics by Great Lake Swimmers

I will agree with both wrat and proposals. Simple.

This was taken from an interview talking about his use of nature in songs:

The songs are more rewarding if you bring something to them. I think the experience of them is different for everybody. It’s alright to listen just on a surface level, and I think they work alright on that level, but getting deeper into them is more rewarding for a listener I think. It’s not exactly party music.
