Cats and Dogs
The Head and the Heart Lyrics
Somewhere underneath the floorboard
I will sweep my garden
Underneath the cupboard
Lives a mouse
And he discovered there was nothing there
Nothing there to discover
Falling from the sky
There are raindrops in my eyes
And my thoughts are digging in the back yard
Don't know where they are
I don't know where they are
My roots are grown but I don't know where they are
Cats and dogs and rooster calls
Telephones and pay phone stalls
They take away
The lonely days
And now
They take away
The lonely days
For now

Composed primarily of transplants to the Seattle area, The Head and the Heart write and play songs that speak to the newness of a fresh start, of the ghosts left behind, of moving forward, all brimming with a soulfulness and hope for a better life than the one we've all been sold.
Stylistically, think a folksy Beatles or The Avett Brothers with a little extra oomph. Catchy piano melodies stand side by side with a tight trio of harmonies, and solid minimalist drums, groovin' bass, and plenty of hand percussion and foot stomps make the live show inspiring and really goddamn fun.
After the band self-released its eponymous debut album in June 2010, the emblematic Seattle label Sub Pop re-released the album. For the Sub Pop version, the song “Sounds like Hallelujah” has been re-recorded, live favorite “Rivers and Roads” has been added, and the album has been re-mastered.
The band's second album "Let's Be Still" was released on October 15, 2013.
The band released their third studio album, "Signs of Light", in September 2016.
The band's fourth album, "Living Mirage", was released in May 2019.
Band member Josiah Johnson released his debut solo album, "Every Feeling On a Loop", in September 2020.

@bobby bez More like 1 min. 55 sec. if you take the silent parts out at the beginning & end. Maybe they didn't take this song too serious/didn't spend too long on it.
