Give and Take - Wiley Post

Give and Take - Wiley Post
3:13
single, 2022
Written by Wiley Post

Wiley Post is an Alaskan rock band named after the one-eyed pilot who was the first to fly solo around the world, and whose 1935 crash killed himself and Will Rogers.  I think they only have a few extant songs.  This one is bouncy folk-rock with staccato guitar riffs and lots of crashing percussion.  Sadie Arneson's vocals whisper, belt, and yell.  The lyrics are about finding the right one, despite any bumps in the road: "That's my give and take / My mistake to make... My hold me tight at night / My with you I feel just right."
