Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by Cheryl Waters, host of the Midday Show on KEXP, is "Grapevine" by Weyes Blood, from the 2022 album And In The Darkness, Hearts Aglow on Sub Pop.
Los Angeles-based artist Weyes Blood (real name: Natalie Mering) explores the ways we're tangled together on the wistful acoustic ballad "Grapevine."
“Technology is harvesting our attention away from each other,” she said, via a press release. “We all have a ‘Grapevine’ entwined around our past with unresolved wounds and pain. Being in love doesn’t necessarily mean being together. Why else do so many love songs yearn for a connection?”
