Honestly, Nico Robin beating the crap out of a guy for messing up ruins is peak archaeologist. Get it, babe. You are what we all wish to be. Also, did you all see the perfect square hole she carved out of that cloud? And those perfect cubes she was cutting out? Perfection.

This entire scene in CoG was amazing. This book is quite spectacular in funny moments

Song Review: Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway - “San Joaquin” (Live in Studio)

Making their bluegrass instruments mimic a train, Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway are heading down the line to sell some weed in “San Joaquin.”

A Tuttle/Ketch Secor co-write, the high-test track follows “El Dorado” and “Next Rodeo” from City of Gold, out July 21.

The track burns down the track in three minutes, leaving just enough time for solos from Tuttle’s axe, Bronwyn Keith-Hynes’ fiddle, Dominick Leslie’s mandolin, Kyle Tuttle’s banjo and Shelby Means’ upright bass as Tuttle sings the smuggler’s story:

Riding on the San Joaquin/bringing in some Humboldt green … /when I get to Richmond I’ll be gold/soon as this suitcase is sold/’til then I’m rolling down the line/just looking for the next high time/riding on the San Joaquin

“San Joaquin” is not a lyrical masterpiece. But the music is mighty.

El Dorado 🔆

[myansanidee]

The part in City of Gold where Orville Peck sings "all that I want is a kind heart to haunt, my shrink says it ain't too much to ask."

That gets me every single time. The first time I heard it, I felt that in every fiber of my being and it has been my favourite song of his ever since.

This song is beautiful and haunting in the most wonderful way and I could listen to it on repeat forever.

Foods Gold

Indian Slider with 22-Karat Gold... In the spirit of transparency (and because I might get cancelled for being paid by the taxes of the people and eating gold at the same time) I'll tell you how much I paid for this. 99 Dirhams (1,500 Pesos). 30 na orders ng Buy 1 Take 1 sa Angel's Burger na yun. It's expensive for a burger, but it's not millionaire level expenisive... I just wanted to experience what it feels like to eat gold. And never going to eat gold again. Hahaha.

Revelation 21: God's Glorious City

For this city was made entirely of the purest gold and shimmered with every hue of gem and pearl. In fact, each of its portals was carved from one voluminous pearl a piece. The sentries were angels. Every part of the city was foursquare, infinitely stable

Song Review: Molly Tuttle & Golden Highway - “Next Rodeo”

Molly Tuttle’s “Next Rodeo” is a sonic autobiography about perseverance amid life on the road.

Taking musical inspiration from the Chicks and comfort in clichés, “Next Rodeo” contains such lines as this ain’t my first rodeo; reaching for the ring; life ain’t fair; take it by the horns; one-night stands; tearing up the road; back in the saddle; hitch my wagon to a shooting star …

And so on.

So while the country-bluegrass hybrid is musically pleasing, the lyrics are eye-rolling to the point that Golden Highway’s fiddle and Dobro solos cannot salve.

“Next Rodeo” follows the superior “El Dorado” from City of Gold, out July 21.

Grammy–winning singer, songwriter, and musician Molly Tuttle and her band, Golden Highway, will release their new album, City of Gold, July 21, on Nonesuch. You can pre-order and hear the track “El Dorado” now here.

Produced by Tuttle and Jerry Douglas and recorded in Nashville, City of Gold was inspired by Tuttle’s near constant touring with Golden Highway—fiddler Bronwyn Keith-Hynes, mandolinist Dominick Leslie, bassist Shelby Means, and banjo player Kyle Tuttle—and their growth together as musicians and performers, cohering as a band. These 13 tracks, mostly written by Tuttle and Ketch Secor (Old Crow Medicine Show), capture the electric energy of the band’s live shows by highlighting each members’ musical strengths. City of Gold also features special guest Dave Matthews on the song “Yosemite.”
