"Tonight" - Emy Reynolds Band

It�s always hard to find a consistent source for good, new music. One surprising source that I�ve found is actually "Grey's Anatomy" - the TV show. Whether or not you are a fan of hospital drama the show consistently plays great songs by new artists every week. One week I was watching the show among other things (like painting my nails, or downloading music on my laptop) when I first heard "Tonight". I wasn't really paying attention to the TV but when I heard the melody I immediately rewound my PVR so I could catch the lyrics. I wrote down a few verses and after not much luck with Google I finally found the song guide for that episode.

Joan Baez & Bob Dylan

I'm not a huge fan of most female singers - I prefer the growl of a man instead, but Emy Reynolds caught my attention. She sounds ethereal and folksy - almost like a younger Joan Baez. It's no surprise the band lists Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell as some of their influences.

The song "Tonight" definitely draws from folk roots. It seems to tell the story of a girl from a poor family whose Mother lies about her past to make for a better future. The finger picking and harmonica remind me of something Bob Dylan would have written in his younger days. "Tonight" was the Emy Reynold Bands first EP and first song to air on a TV show.Best wishes to them on future success.



She was from Kansas
Worked in a dairy
Eight brothers and sisters
Her mom she said she was from France
Her mom said she was from France
But she was from New Mexico
And she was from New Mexico

And tonight, tonight,
I will have to say goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Tomorrow, Tomorrow
If my heart is full of sorrow
I will call out for you


Lived in a trailer
Painted the skies
She said she had no life there
And she said she had no life there


And tonight, tonight,
I will have to say goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Tomorrow, Tomorrow
If my heart is full of sorrow
I will call out for you

And tonight, tonight,
I will have to say goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Tomorrow, Tomorrow
If my heart is full of sorrow
I will call out for you
Call out for you

Go ahead and tell that story
I will learn it again and again
Your smile, laugh and words
Like damn are bringing me home

Go ahead and tell that story
I will learn it again and again
Your smile, laugh and words
Like damn are bringing me home

And tonight, tonight,
I will have to say goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Tomorrow, Tomorrow
If my heart is full of sorrow
I will call out for you

And tonight, tonight,
I will have to say goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Tomorrow, Tomorrow
If my heart is full of sorrow
I will call out for you
Call out for you
