I Play on the Black Keys

Music is a gift from God. Something about music just makes me smile and soothes my nerves. I find comfort in the transitions of chords, the ease of pianos, the strum of the guitars, but most of all in lyrics. One of my favorite lyricist is ANDY DAVIS. "I play on the black keys, where I don't have to worry much, it's already hard enough, to sing a song about this. Some people try the white keys, but the thinking hurts my head, so I move back here instead, it comes easier.." This song is about his love for a woman and he is doing his trying his very hardest to express to her that he wants her to stay and not leave. He is afraid that he isn't showing enough or proving to her that he does care about her as much as he does. Everyone has had this experience and everyone knows what it is like to want someone to stay with them and love them. Songs like this one, "Black Keys," have deeper meaning than the words and Andy Davis does an amazing job with this concept. He is a Nashville-based musicial that has played behind and with people such as Marc Broussard, Josh Kelley, Dave Barnes, and Matt Wertz. He will be performing this Friday at the Exit/In at 8pm and is most definitely worth checking out.
