I saw Rachael Yamaga play Thursday, November 6, at the Workplay theater in Birmingham, Alabama. Great concert, only about 50 people or less there. Very intimate, very moving.
I have to say, though, that this song was the best.
"Rachael Yamagata ft. Ray Lamontagne - Duet"

She sang it alone, just Rachael and her guitar--Ray wasn't there. Doesn't matter. Still fabulous.
Rachael said that she wrote it based on her experience as a touring musician. Always on the road. Finding it easier to make connections with other musicians who understand how that feels, but not being able to be in the same place long enough, yet always intending to cross paths again. Bittersweet. Wonderful to find a connection, but so sad to not be able to hold onto it, despite all intentions. Very touching and sad.
