16. David Swanson - Pocketknife Heart
Title: Pocketknife Heart
Artist: David Swanson
Album: Things We Say In The Dark
Back in 2015, "Kerosene" from the last The Frozen Ocean album landed at #19 on the Countdown. David Swanson is The Frozen Ocean, although he has put that moniker to rest in lieu of using his own name to release his new music. Things We Say In The Dark is an eternity away from the self-titled debut album from TFO, but it is beautifully made and emotionally profound, with the lead single latching on and landing at #16 this year. I was thrilled to hear new music from David but I had no idea how hard it would hit me. I got to meet him two years ago at Furnace Fest and he was every bit the humble, kind of tremendous human that I hoped he would be. If there's any (non-local) song that I'd absolutely want anyone reading this to listen to, it would be this one.
Favorite line: "cuz I lost my way somewhere on my way back home"
