Happy Tuesday!
Hope I find you well on this day in August!
Today's featured artist is a man named Christopher Mansfield, but he is probably more commonly known by his stage name: Fences.
He hails from Seattle, Washington and (according to his Official Myspace Page) he's gone from, "just working as a breakfast cook, spending my money at the bar, and playing songs with my friends in my kitchen," to getting contacted by Sara Quin (from Tegan & Sara) of this he said, "I remember thinking, Whoa! My life might be a little different from now on."
Of the music Fences makes, Sara Quin has said, "Everything that Chris writes, melodically and lyrically, has that rare balance of patience and urgency that I love in honest, haunting pop songs."
Well, Sara, I couldn't have said it better myself!
Here are a few songs for you to indulge in today.
These are my personal faves from Fences!
"Girls With Accents"
"Sadie"
and lastly, "My Girl The Horse" (Featuring Sara Quin)
If your ears liked what they heard, you should check out his official website www.sadcastle.com for more information.
And if he's performing at a city near you, GO!
That's it for today, check back on Friday for the Feel Good Tune of the week!
Until then, be safe, take care and much love!
XOXO
