Vineyard By: Avi Salloway © 2013 Fall away in love Fall deep like the light leaves the sun Catch a ray from your heart You picked me when I was lost, lost Feel the wind, feel the earth I am water you are wood, yes it’s good Listen to the loon call I will catch you when you fall, fall Light my life The northern lights in the sky Hold my hand There’s no need to pretend The wind has unwound the helix of our love Ooh… We have just begun Find a star in the sky Through city lights you have to try, try When the dove flies to town Be sure you are around Feel the air between the pines This is where our love lies And now you sing into my ear The melody I love to hear Light my life The northern lights in the sky Hold my hand There’s no need to pretend The wind has unwound the helix of our love Ooh… We have just begun Eclipse, the water drips The rhythm reminds me when were kids Like yesterday, in so many ways I feel like a child, I want to play Take me to the vineyard it’s spring my dear The buds are near And all above in this busy world I just want you my girl Light my life Like the northern lights in the sky Hold my hand There’s no need to pretend The wind has unwound the helix of our love Ooh… We have just begun

about

From the front-lines at Standing Rock to the archaic streets of Jerusalem, the Sahel Desert to Carnegie Hall, music has been the source of strength for Billy Wylder. The band features Avi Salloway (Bombino/Hey Mama/Avi & Celia) joined by an inspired cast of singular artists who have performed across five continents.

In the heat of the Arab Spring, Avi traveled to Israel and Palestine to work on an ethnographic music and dialogue project with young Arab and Jewish artists. Through his inspiration from the experience, new songs began to take form and the idea of Billy Wylder was born. The band recorded Sand & Gold with the help of The Low Anthem and Dan Cardinal in Providence, RI and is now touring America, building the “Wylder family” of fans from town to town.

Billy Wylder, like their peers, the David Wax Museum and Vampire Weekend, bring sounds from around the globe to meld with their American roots, taking the listener on a journey from bayou to borough, desert to dreamland. Wylder’s a rebel on horseback, singing songs with the people he meets, songs of love and adventure, filled with the color of his journey.
