In honor of Celebrate the Banjo Week (note: I don’t think there is such a thing, but the Chinese don’t know this.  Shhh, don’t tell ’em,) I am listening to mostly Iron and Wine, Sufjan Stevens, and Travis (ok, not a lot of banjo in Travis, but there is this one song…) this week.  (Oh yeah, and a little Bob Dylan.  He plays the banjo a little, right?)

There’s something comforting to my "bluegrass" blood to hear that whiney, metallic pickin’.

Here’s my favorite verse from an Iron and Wine song:

"Love is the best sensation hiding in the lion’s mane…"

This is so reminiscent of Aslan, I wonder if it’s intentional.
