a.d.d. | young girls in flannel and the woods


please don't find out that these girls are a swedish folk band with a myspace and a style sheet and a tongue in cheek sense of humor and an indie label writing "authenticity and honesty" in their bio. how shitty and typical. forget even that they write their own songs or that they ever sang before or after. ambition, no matter how pure, is a fuck you scrawled across the matter-of-fact phoebe caulfield sweetness of teenaged sisters going to the woods together in flannel shirts to make a gift of singing with their eyes closed for their favorite band. pretend it's only that. oversung summer camp harmony and chubby cheeks on each other's shoulders. any more is too much.
