FROZEN CABINS IN THE WOODS

Bon Iver On 'Blood Bank' (And An Unlikely Hit)

MUSIC INTERVIEW: LISTEN HERE

My friend John just sent me a link to this interview. It's very relevant to me at this point in time... especially six minutes into the interview. I am currently hibernating and trying to make a recovery from the illness I am suffering from and things I'm going through. I recently left Falmouth (my home of four years) to stay with my family who are now in a different place to where I grew up. A brand new place for me. This is where I am reflecting on the last six years of my life, I have reached a point in my life where something needs to change. Like Justin points out in the interview, "you can't really be aware of that because you're so within it, you're so in the present moment. And that present moment seems to be constantly fleeting at the same time".

"Frozen cabins in the woods of Wisconsin aren't normally places where legendary music is born. But in the middle of winter two years ago, at one such cabin, the spirits of folk-rock somehow came together to help Justin Vernon record a masterpiece... "
