Whoa so this isn’t directly related but I saw the twitter thing on the side and someone from Taylor’s band tweeted about The Head and the Heart, which is insane! They’re from my city and they are amazing! Actually I’m pretty sure Charity went to my high school. Plus they’re friends with The Civil Wars (who are amazing as well, of course). Such a small world! Good music knows no boundaries.
