Monday Music: Harlem River

If the title, "Harlem River" sounds familiar, it is because my last post had the same title. It was an original haiku inspired by Ernest Lawson's 1915 painting, "Washington Bridge, Harlem Rover." I'm dwelling on the Harlem River a bit linger because I discovered an indie rock artist, Kevin Morby who has a song called "Harlem River. Morby is a new artist to me, and I like his sound. This is from his 2013 debut album by the same name.
