The Whiskey Priest Releases When You Were Stretched Out in Front of Me Video
Seth Woods has worked with a lot of incredible names from the Austin scene, like Chris Simpson (Mineral) and Emily Cross (Loma/Cross Record), but as of right now he’s working under his solo moniker, The Whiskey Priest. Today we bring you the first listen from the forthcoming LP Grief & Praise; it’s an expansive piece of balladry, shot by our good friend Michael Maly. Lyrically, the song seems to be a reflection on coming to terms with the present while looking back at what was once shared. With Woods voice, the song definitely pulls on the emotional elements of our nature, as it has this pseudo-gruffness that practically gives voice to a sense of longing. Listen carefully, as there’s huge arrangements that sweep through the song too, adding this textural depth that is undeniably powerful. Grief & Praise is out April 28th via Casita Records.
