David Childers is an NC treasure. I been showing off DC's songs for years, I hope the Avetts bring him some much deserved attention.

The power of this song and the Avett Brothers.......This song makes me smile about my ex-wife. We did our honeymoon improvised up the PCH. The first town had a seaside bar we went to. This song reminds me of the good times. Even of they ended.

Still listening, and even playing ALONGSIDE My Heroes, Scott and Seth Avett with my Band, Black Water Boogie from Jackson, Ms. on Playlists on Spotify, AppleMusic, here on YouTube Music etc., and this published 6 days after my 18th birthday and the Day I Graduated my freshman Year at MSU, where I first heard these two brothers' Genius writing, picking, and Singing, which inspired me to buy and learn on my first 5- string Banjo, and today, because of The Avett Brothers, I am proudly Signed to Ark Studios Media Group with my 5 piece band, Touring the South, and have even recieved State and National Music Awards and Recognition. Thank God for The Avett Brothers, and God Bless the whole Avett family and Band!
