i’ve never heard of newcomer’s home, but this first song that came up when i googled them is evoking feelings of sixpence none the richer, but, like, if alanis morissette were lead singer, which i am Very here for.

This is probably my favorite song of theirs. I have a live album that is maybe one of my favorite albums ever. I listened to it a lot when I was college (which was when they already broke up, but it got me through a lot of good and bad times). EDIT: Ohhhh, this is the first song off the live album. It’s a great album. EDIT EDIT: oh man the mandolin on this part I just *cries* and then the dueling violin and mandolin on Texas! So good.

They probably weren’t that popular, tbh, except in the local college circuit, but my mentor while I was in high school (she was in college) really loved them and introduced me to them and, well, I guess she was a good mentor. :p

You should look up Katie Herzig! She was the lead singer and now has a bunch of her own albums. She passes through town on tours occasionally and I always say I’ll go but never remember or realize until it’s too late.
