TUNES // Sarah Louise – The Day is Past and Gone

Posted on Oct 5, 2017By Misha


 
Mushroomed: after a rain mushrooms appear on the surface of the earth as if from nowhere. Many do so from a sometimes vast underground fungus that remains invisible and largely unknown. What we call mushrooms mycologists call the fruiting body of the larger, less visible fungus. Uprisings and revolutions are often considered to be spontaneous, but less visible long-term organizing and groundwork – or underground work – often laid the foundation. Changes in ideas and values also result from work done by writers, scholars, public intellectuals, social activists, and participants in social media. It seems insignificant or peripheral until very different outcomes emerge from transformed assumptions about who and what matters, who should be heard and believed, who has rights.
– Rebecca Solnit, Hope In The Dark
I just started reading this book & I have a really good feeling about it.


This song is from self-taught finger-picking virtuoso Sarah Louise‘s first album, Field Guide. Her latest release, For The Benefit Of Love, is a 27-minute improvisation to benefit the SPLC. Buy on Bandcamp.
