Today, the duo share a brand new song, “There Are No More Almond Trees“. “There Are No More Almond Trees” is a beautiful tune Young penned about watching his home state of California be ravaged by fires, floods, and mudslides. “I started wondering, what would I miss if it all went away?” The song’s concept… Read more »
