#restless mind

"I should be working, but I got bored and played with my boobs instead." 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

“you said ‘watch the way that you light that wick, ‘cos the field’s getting dry and it burns up quick.’

like the way your restless mind lets in every demon when you don’t know why.

when the walls close in, and im lost in all my sin,

You spent so much time just living in the dark

And I hope you know that wherever you are

We spent so much time just living in the dark

And I hope you know that wherever we are

Sam Barber wasn’t messing around with his debut album, last November’s Restless Mind, which has 28(!) terrific songs. 

“The double LP shows the true breadth of his artistry, which is grounded in raw, narrative songwriting—like that of two of Barber’s musical idols, Zach Bryan and Tyler Childers—and gritty, spare production that puts the listeners’ focus squarely on Barber’s emotive, bellowing voice.” 

On Wednesday night, the North American leg of the Missouri musician’s Restless Mind Tour rolled into the East Village for the first of two sold-out shows at Webster Hall.
