The Welcome Wagon - Esther reads Philippians [Side A] Asthmatic Kitty Records 2022-11-09 | Listen to Side B: youtu.be/uOyDZk_Dll4As an art student at The Cooper Union in New York, Monique Auito, of The Welcome Wagon, passed the lonely hours in her studio listening to the calming crackle of cassette tapes her grandmother, Esther, had sent on which she’d recorded herself reading the bible. As a young mother, Monique had flown home from her grandmother’s funeral with a treasure trove of old magazine clippings, wrapping paper scraps, and invitations sent more than half a century before. Now, with her grandmother’s cassettes playing in the background, Monique began using pieces from this collection to create large-scale collages, beautiful, evocative, and almost haunting in their pastiche of the past. “Using the music as a starting point, I wove together any objects on hand that fit with the chords, the vision, the melody, the spirit of the songs,” says Monique, whose paintings provide the artwork for The Welcome Wagon's new album. Her grandmother, Esther, gave the album its name.In this recording, Esther reads from Philippians, tells the story of a teacher named Coila Cook, and sings "Rejoice in the Lord Always."

Denison Witmer - Birds of Virginia (Simplified Mix) Asthmatic Kitty Records 2020-12-09 | From the forthcoming American Foursquare (Simplified EP) denisonwitmer.ffm.to/birdsofvirginiaDenison Witmer: "'Birds of Virginia' is a love song for my wife. The busy nature of our home means we are often caught up in just getting through each day - though I would argue that each small action we take throughout the day reflects the care we have for one another (pouring a cup of coffee for your partner, packing a child's lunch, or folding laundry at night). Each of us has an internal world - our own set of ideas, plans, and goals - that sometimes get put on hold or shifted as we focus on getting through the day-to-day. This song is a reframing of these daily moments that might otherwise feel mundane, as well as an acknowledgment and celebration of how expansive my wife is."Lyrics:I can fix your father’s chair up for youI can paint the hallway in a dayI can drop the subject if you want toI know how late is too lateHere I stand beside you in the marketHere I carry water to the bedHere I make love with you like a prophetTo empty the thoughts in your headYou are the light of my homeYou are the mother of my childrenYou are my calm and my wildYou are my everythingYou are the birds of VirginiaYou have a universe in youA flash of bright in my winterYou are the birds of VirginiaOne step at a time, loveEvery day before me is a godYou can bury your face in my shirtI won’t drop you, I won’t drop youYou’re so kind to me sometimes it hurtsBirds Of Virginia (Simplified Mix) LINER NOTES:written by Denison Witmer.

I sold a house in the city Moving back to the place I grew What else can I say to you?

Like if you’re bored, you’re boring? I see the point, but I’m all mixed up I’d be lost without your love I’m lost without you An American Foursquare On a tree-lined avenue What am I going to do now?
