Music stripped down to such a pure form. Beautiful. Its bands like these guys that reassure me that music really isnt dying, you just have to dig a little more to find the gold
Well it wasn't dying 11 years ago. These days shit is bad. :( Music is just awful. it broke my hearth when these two broke apart and stopped making music together.
Why is it that I just found out this duo 3 or 4 weeks ago or so. I was looking for acoustic songs on Amazon and came across with them and I am hooked watching them on you tube. They are very very good!!!! Can't believe they had broken up. It had been years! Darn it! Just started playing acoustic guitar and ukulele and I appreciate this kind of music. Hope they get back together and write and play more songs because they are amazing together.
I wish I could see them perform live in such a small venue. They would really know I enjoyed their music because i would not be able to sit still. They would see this young black woman in the audience swaying, smiling and waving my hand to the music. Their music gives my heart wings.Poison and wine describes exactly what I am going through right now and let's me cry.

If you get stuck or need a little extra help, I just posted a video lesson for this on my channel :)
Their sound is like from a different era. It feels timeless at the same time. They have good stage chemistry but the way their voices blend together is phenomenal. Thank you for creating this music.
The Universe brought them together - that sort of chemistry is a once in a lifetime thing if you're lucky. Then there's the being human side to totally screw it all up! I was in a duo that had this chemistry and impact on people - it was a really healing thing said those who know us. Our vocals were perfectly matched and the phrasing was to the breath like these two. But we weren't a couple outside of that and let me tell you - playing like this with someone is pretty close to making love if not better. I't s impossible to keep it bullshit free! Ans so it had to dissolve. One of the saddest mistakes of my life thus far. If you're lucky enough to have something like this and haven't fucked it up yet - DON'T!!
dont worry they r not done yet. just having a break. they do have families and would like to spend time w/ them. How would u feel if u had to tour all the time never seeing ur spouse or kids?Sometimes people need a vac.just being real. not hatin u or anyone else.please continue 2 support their music.
Chelsea, they`ve been done a while now. People continue to support Joy & John Paul in their endeavors . If they get back together that would be great but there`s no sign of it so far. Unless you know different?
John Paul: It’s a little stressful, because usually I’m in front of strangers, so I can fall flat on my face. Joy: You don’t ever do that, what are you talking about, you’re crazy :3 John Paul: Well, I was fishing for that compliment, in case you didn’t notice. Joy: Oh. :P They are so cute together, oml ^-^ I love them, they are amazing
I was there when The Civil Wars played upstairs at Billy Reid in Florence Great show! They deserve much more than they have already accomplished! Great humble people!
my boyfriend and i are buying tickets to see them in houston next month! i cannot wait, we fell in love with the civil wars as we started dating. its funny, we've got songs to fall in love to and if we fall out of love, we've got plenty of those too!
They are planning to release more music in 2013, they've only discontinued their tour for the year. This was announced last month. Look at their website. They're not "broken up"
@iheartluccileball11 No. Joy Williams husband is the band manager. They are expecting their first child. And as stated in this video, John Paul White is also married.
Absolutely love these two, there music is sublime and effortlessly tasteful. now to follow with a tasteless comment: All I can say is, his wife must be absolutely stunning...
