Listening from the US here. Just discovered y'all lately (get it?) through your Kate Rusby cover of "Lately". I'm really liking the other stuff I've heard too. You're criminally underrated. Please keep doing what you do!
Your music is so emotional, I can barely listen anymore - which is the biggest compliment I can give you. RIP Ernie, wish I would have treated you better than that 😢
Beautiful! I love The Maes’ harmonies, and John’s rich voice blends so well with you both, as the three of you express those heartfelt lyrics with such honesty and warmth. Thank you for sharing your gifts with us. 🎼💛🧡❤️🎶
Beautiful songwriting and tune. Some Canadian friends, The Bombadils, suggested I hunt you out - very glad for the introduction. Will did deeper into your catalogue after work. Great stuff.
One of the songs that's helped to keep me sane this last 12 months. Thanks so much for all you do and hope to see you playing live in Scotland again soon!
It's hard to explain what all your music has meant to me these last few years but I'm still loving everything you publish! Thanks so much for putting something good into 2020.
Your music touches a part of my heart that nothing else understands. It’s as if your music re-creates every emotion I felt from my childhood and delivers it to me. It’s the most beautiful yet painful experience at the same time - only painful because it’s so beautiful though. Xoxo from Montreal
I don't know about oceans deep and far apart it seems that oceans have waves to stretch themselves for miles between our hearts i know a lot about crying crying in the rain i know that since i met you i wont be crying alone again CHORUS: i don't know about the sunrise i havent seen enough to know that it will come tomorrow or get bored and give it up All i know as I love you more, every day than I did before and I could lie here on this floor, forever [Cello + plucked banjo? instrumental] I don't know about the future it still seems so far away like you could know every moment of a life time on every single day I'm not scared of dying i'm not scared of being alone and i'm not scared of any kind of future where you are a place I call home CHORUS X2 [and i don't know about the sunrise i havent seen enough to know that it will come tomorrow or get bored and give it up All i know as I love you more, every day than I did before and I could lie here on this floor, forever and i don't know about the sunrise i havent seen enough to know that it will come tomorrow or get bored and give it up All i know as I love you more, every day than I did before and I could lie here on this floor, forever]
I miss Australia and it's wonderful inhabitants. This video and song made me spontaneously ugly cry into my tea. Never thought I would be so...patriotic?
I was blessed to hear the Maes last week when they opened their US tour in Newburyport. Their exquisite harmonies, and stripped down acoustical instrumentation are truly blissful! Once word of their incredible talent gets out they are going to be playing much bigger venues!
the girl staring at 1:53 has the same look on her face that I had for most of the night: "WHAT AM I SEEING? IS THIS REAL? WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE?" "COULD MUSIC BE TOUCHING ME LIKE THIS"
