The new favorite song of the day: “Lawdy” from Vespers

Here’s another great song from The Vespers of Nashville, a remarkable band we’ve been celebrating here for years. Written by Phoebe Cryar, it’s “Lawdy”.

Vespers are two sisters (Callie and Phoebe Cryar) and two brothers (Bruno and Taylor Jones). The sisters are the daughters of Christian artist Morgan Cryar, most famous for his interpretation of “Pray in the USA”. All four are multi-instrumentalists, covering upright and electric bass, guitar, banjo, drums, mandolin, ukulele, accordion and more.

Vespers were first of all a duo of sisters; they named their group Vespers after Phoebe found this word for evening prayer and Callie liked it, because she felt it was easy to remember.

They sing, as the saying goes, like only siblings can sing. Brothers and sisters who are great harmony singers, that is to say. Their two voices in perfect visceral harmony are the driving force of this group. But more was needed, and when they met the Jones musical brothers at a campfire, they found their band’s missing pieces, and they became four,

“Lawdy” recently got a new wave of attention after being featured on the “Longmire” TV show. This is from their second album The fourth wall, released in 2012. The album title, they say, refers to the invisible fourth wall that separates performers and audiences; it is a wall they aim to tear down.

Lyrics and music by Phoebe Cryar

Lawdy, Lawdy, please help me sleep
I’ve been tired too long, too long, mate!
Lawdy, lawdy, please give me peace
I’ve been scared for too long, mate!

Hold me in your hands, help me understand
You put me in your ways, my right, remain the right!
Lawdy, Lawdy is staying!

Lawdy, Lawdy stay with me
I need you to stay by my side, stay by my side, buddy!
Lawdy, Lawdy, please help me see
I can’t be blind my whole life, my whole life, sir!

Hold me in your hands, help me understand
You put me in your ways, my right, remain the right!
Lawdy, Lawdy is staying!

Hold me in your hands, help me understand
You put me in your ways, my right, remain the right!

Hold me in your hands, help me understand
You put me in your ways, my right, remain the right!
Lawdy, Lawdy is staying!
Lawdy, Lawdy is staying!

Thanks to our good friend Jeff Gold, songwriter and owner of the
West Valley Music Center in West Hills, California for suggesting this song.
