Leaving Louisiana blues is the song about having to leave someplace you love because the people you love want you to. Louisiana can be anywhere. The singer of the song is everyone that’s ever felt betrayed, unseen, ghosted, unwanted. In every leaving, there is the seed of returning, always. In every goodbye there is a bittersweet notion that you will come back one day, just like the ocean, the winds of change, the forgotten, the only begotten. Sometimes you gotta get up get out, get right with your doubts and sing about the way you want to be treated
Stream it, save it, like it, love it, think about it right before you go to bed at night. Keep it on your nightstand like a lamp in the dark to show you the way. Mostly just give it away, sharing means caring. If you care about Shinyribs and about the people in your life, if you don’t want this to happen to you one day having to leave your own personal Louisiana then share this song, it just might be the most important thing you do today
