From http://www.americansongwriter.com/

We’re proud to bring you the premiere one of our favorite tracks from Chesapeake, the lyrically inventive “The Way It Seems To Go.” Take a listen, and read our interview with Yamagata on her new album below.

Tell us a a bit about writing "The Way It Seems To Go."

I wanted something with a little bit of a sense of humor about it. I remember talking to my previous A&R guy at Warner Bros. He just kept saying, “you’re such a light-hearted person, you’re funny on stage, you have this other side of you that you don’t really show, or haven’t shown yet in your records about your personality. He encouraged me to explore that a little bit in song. So that song was me trying to plug into my basic personality and be very realistic about my goofy nature, and it’s very autobiographical. Lyrically, it’s true to form to how my life just seems to develop. It made it sort of a fun, musical setting for it because it’s got that nature to the lyric.

In the words of Doug and the Josh Ritter Team:
While at SXSW in Austin, Josh stopped by a certain classic motorhome to record for 'On-Airstream" an awesome solo acoustic rendition of "Folk Bloodbath." It is gorgeously shot and captured. See it here!
