jukeboxphantom One of the best singles in a long time, not measured in weeks, months, or even years. Strong and uplifting and showcasing every voice and instrument. Asheville and Brevard (North Carolina) have an artistic treasure. Joy. Pure Joy.

PDD The title says it all. The song hit its groove within -- at most -- three notes and never left it. Favorite track: Sweet Spot.

about

GRAMMY Award-winning Americana perennials Steep Canyon Rangers return with "Sweet Spot," the final recording to feature lead vocalist and founding member Woody Platt before he waves goodbye. The tender tune features multiple members of the Rangers taking lead vocals on a verse Last Waltz-style and features the band's trademark harmonies and riveting musicianship. The feel-good track proves why American Songwriter declares that “Steep Canyon Rangers transform the groundbreaking work into masterful artifacts of their very own...with a keen eye for progressive arrangements and uproarious energy.”

lyrics

Find a little sweet spot about a mile wide
Through the eye of the needle to the other side
Now get the motor running, but not too high
Yeah, find a little sweet spot and just let it ride

Find a little sweet spot that’s not bought or sold
In the heat of the desert and the ice and the snow
Where the peace and quiet gets out of control
Find a little sweet spot and watch the river roll
Find a little sweet spot and watch the river roll

Find a little sweet spot when the band kicks in
All together now like birds on the wind
And just one beat, and just one breath, let it out, let it in
Find a little sweet spot and get down again

Find a little sweet spot in the heat of the day
Let it take your hand and lead you into the shade
Lay down in the cool grass until your worries fade
Find a little sweet spot with the love you made
Find a little sweet spot with the love you made

Find a little sweet spot where it feels just right
How you making a living, how you make a life
Right there in the middle between the heavy and the light
Find a little sweet spot where it feels just right

Find a little sweet spot on down the road
Like a new beginning where you never grow old
Where the rules are broken, it’s a brand new game
Yeah, find a little sweet spot where they know your name
Find a little sweet spot where they know your name

Find a little sweet spot
Find a little sweet spot
Find a little sweet spot
Find a little sweet spot
