about

After a hiatus from her solo work to focus on up-and-coming Boston folk group Hawthorn, Taylor Holland has begun creating a new EP that brings a more seasoned sound to her etheric yet powerful songwriting. 'Home,' the first single from the project, is an exploration into the sensory recollections of childhood, at once a lullaby and a memoir. Holland works with the idea of home as a state of being rather than just a physical location, weaving together images and ideas from her own internal 'home.' "There is unending expanse within the song to stretch out and get lost in" (Red Line Roots), an immersive dance of voice and melodic saxophone lines above the broad rhythmic base.

lyrics

by the lake people stayed for summertime
left their shoes left their trails across the floor
I traveled a dusty road
found you again

keep me under your little bones
make me home, make me home

I walked across the sky
to find empty jars, faded mats at the doors
a little child
in the lightning, in the rain
held her in my arms

kept her under my little bones
made a home, made a home

went down to the orchard house
black roses in the garden
maple tree by the road

went up to the working house
blueberries in the garden
willow tree whispering
who were you
who were you before

I've been in your bones
I've been home, I've been home
