    The group is called Rules of Attraction and the song is entitled, "Ease Your Mind." I usually don't include captions in my videos. My videos follow the historical site's tour map. I try to place signs and markers in front of the photo to explain the spot on the battlefield and beyond. But I am glad you enjoyed this American Civil War site and my video.........

    Love the music. (Who did it?) Some captioning of what we're looking at would be helpful. Been to that sight numerous times before they had those informational signs. The house you showed in the beginning was used as a field hospital, still had bullet holes going all the way through the walls, very cool indeed. The dirt forts were unmolested.
