Previous St. Paul resident and Mason Jennings tour-mate Haley Bonar is no stranger to local accolades, but with her recent move to Portland and her latest release, Golder, Haley may be on her way to nationally-renowned musical success. The strongest single off of Golder is easily the delicately nostalgic Silver Zephyrs. Bonar's careful lyrical arrangements and soulful vocal balance create a track of unparalleled beauty and ease.
Tried hard to leave the earth, but the strings pulled too hard If you want to find escape, there's a place in your back yard Lying flat upon our backs, watching silver zephyrs pass The sky is auburn, the night is sleeping in the past... I won't keep you Trash piles on the curb, what do you love now that there's no me? Go and make your pretty world, it doesn't take a telescope to see I won't keep you
