"Yard Sale" featuring Jack Johnson is the first single from my upcoming album "Wide Open Light" (June 2nd). It's an honor to have Jack on this album. I'm playing rhythm guitar, lap steel and vocals and Jack's wonderful Slack-Key guitar playing and vocals really makes the track. 🧡

Lyrics:
You're the reason
Aliens would come down to earth
Outer space must look small
From inside your universe
We paint time
With the colors of our lives
With what we do to survive
If I were the branch
Of an old oak tree
I hope you'd be the one
On the swing tied to me
Your love is on a need to know basis
And I need to know right now
