DeYarmond Edison is a band of young men with a propensity for sounding old. Their modern elucidation of the singer-songwriter style comes from having soaked up the soul of the past, as well as a vision of the limitless potential for the future of Americana music. They ring it out on their audiences with a mature variety of instrumentation, including piano, banjo, blues harp, vibraphone, pedal steel guitar, organ, an array of electric and cross-acoustic guitars, fretless bass, and a drum set from the 1930's.
The songs are born from seasoned songwriter Justin Vernon (a Bug Music Nashville-published writer), and expanded, colored and filled in by brothers Phil and Brad Cook (who have been with Vernon for nine years), Brian Moen, Joe Westerlund, and Christopher Porterfield. Their stunning list of influences bleed through into their music without ever taking over DYE's own handle on originality. With feet in the grave of the blues, ala Muddy Waters and Mississippi John Hurt, through to the birth of new Americana music from composers such as Bill Frisell and singers like Richard Buckner – without ever leaving behind the gospel of Mahalia Jackson, the high lonesome sounds of Ralph Stanley, the wickedness of Tom Waits, the sensibility of Bonnie Raitt, the R and B of Ray Charles and Sam Cooke, the rock of Springsteen, tenderness of Jackson Browne and the hidden existentialism of John Prine. - From Volume One Mag
The band dissolved in 2006, with the Cooks and Westerlund going on to form Megafaun, and Justin Vernon leading Bon Iver. The band reunited to play two shows in their hometown of Eau Claire, Wisconsin in October of 2007.

DeYarmond Edison Lyrics
Bones, lying in a trunk at the foot of my bed
They're always open to show me that they're still dead
And everyday it's harder still
I am footed and unfilled
Pain, I'm good with the ways there are to erase
And I'm pancaked on the floor, you can't see my face
Cuz it's buried like the moon
Sober morning's come too soon
Bruise, it's coming to the surface, like the vessel
It's been hidden for so long, you are the trestle
That's there to hoist me up
Now this world without you is fucked
Skin, and it's warm enough to hold you and keep you breathing
But it locks me out and makes me lose my needing
And how long to be alone
How will I carry these bones
And I'm so far from not caring

Verse 1]
Bones, lying in a trunk at the foot of my bed
They're always open to show me that they're still dead
And everyday it's harder still
I am flooded and unfilled
[Verse 2]
Pain, I'm good with the ways there are to erase
And I'm pancaked on the floor, you can't see my face
'Cause it's buried like the moon
Sober mornings come too soon
[Verse 3]
Bruise, it's coming to the surface, like the vessel
It's been hidden for so long, you are the trestle
That's there to hoist me up
Now this world without you is fucked
[Verse 4]
Skin, and it's warm enough to hold you and keep you breathing
But it locks me out and makes me lose my needing
And how long to be alone
How will I carry these bones?
[Outro]
And I'm so far from not caring
And I'm so far from not caring
And I'm so far from not caring
And I'm so far from not caring
And I'm so far from not caring
And I'm so far from not caring
And I'm so far from not caring
And I'm so far from not caring

And I'm so far from not caring
And I'm so far from not caring

Justin DeYarmond Edison Vernon, If you read this I want you to know that I love you, your voice and you are amazing. But since you probably won't, I hope a billion people see this, and that it will somehow reach you so that you know. Thanks for making music with so much soul and passion! Your fans, but mostly me

Song of the day 27-06-2016: waking alone/ at the hour when we are trembling with tenderness/ lips that could kiss form prayers to broken stone.
