JE Sunde is one of my spirit animals. Dude is as authentic as he is original.
Yes, dude is the goofy Egon of folk. Yes, his wardrobe is enviable for those of us who can't fit into anything but a stretched out XL. Yes, his shrill voice means even his speaking voice is endearing. Yes, he's the type to wear buttons on his winter jacket.
"Hickory Point in the Fall" is one of my favorite songs off his album Shapes That Kiss The Lips of God, but the imagery that Zach Johnson (DO NOT GOOGLE THIS GUY, THERE ARE NUDE PICTURES OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT ZACH WHEN YOU GOOGLE HIMS) delivered on this her videa (YEA VIDEA) is as fucking gorgeous as it is perfect for JE Sunde to exist within.
I love it when my imaginary vibe of an artist turns out to be EXACTLY how they portray themself.
If you aren't already a JE fanboy, allow me to welcome you to the club. The good news? We all get to wear buttons on our lapels.
