M. Ward

I was going to move on to Saturday but figured I'd post something about the other act playing opposite M83 on Friday.  I have 2 active commenters but over the 4 years existence of this blog I think the readership has doubled.  With that massive growth comes the chance that the other 2 readers may not be as versed in the bands we go see.  So I'll try to be more inclusive.

A great guitarist,  M. Ward has played behind bands such as My Morning Jacket, Jenny Lewis, Neko Case, Beth Orton, and Bright Eyes, to name a few.  He is part of Monsters of Folk and She & Him but in between all that he puts out solo albums.  He has been on more tapings of the Austin City Limits TV show than practically anyone.

Here's a song from his new solo album that I really like.  Very mellow.

The First Time I Ran Away
