LOVE G.A.I 's music but it is so sad to see that one must first agree to whatever CV protocol may be in place to even purchase the tickets though. Where have all the critical thinkers gone...................? There is no music worth that cost.
No matter how difficult, heartbreaking, terrifying, or isolating our lives may be, we can always find refuge in Gregory’s music.

2 AM and your words are wonderful to hear.😊Thank you for your comment!
The moment "The Fall" by Gregory Alan Isakov starts playing, there's an immediate pull. This song feels like the fragility of life captured in notes and lyrics. The repetition of "The fall, the fall, the fall" is like a heartbeat, a rhythmic reminder of the countless times we stumble and try to rise. Isakov speaks of the challenges, from external pressures in lines like "Angles of attack" to the internal struggles we face. Yet, amidst the vulnerabilities, there's an urging chorus - "Get up, get up." It's a call to resilience, to the human spirit that, despite breaking a little with each fall, persists and endures. Every time I hear the line "We all break a little when we fall," it resonates deeply, reminding me of shared human experiences and the collective strength we muster in the face of adversity. This song isn't just heard; it's felt, like a gentle hand reaching out during life's most trying moments, urging you to stand again.

"We all break a little when we fall. And everybody keeps saying get up, go on get up." 😭 Cannot wait to hear the rest!!
"we all break a little when we fall". Truer words have never been sung.
My ethereal music genius is back for real.
I needed this. Had a tough year, everybody expect me to just be fine after a five year long abuse, loss of home, a drastic change of lifestyle... Gregory thank you for reminding me it's ok to break a little

But now I am sure that as it folds, the abuse and the house before well maybe not sure but I do pray, pray to whatever it is you believe in - I pray that you fall like a few drop on leaves and slowly find your way to the reservoir beneath the land and you feel you have fallen into the right place, i do dearly hope ')

Lyrics: The fall, the fall, the fall I keep stumbling back Ivory bone opera glass Angles of attack You heard blood was thick, brothers and sisters But ya don't know where anybody's at Time was a bust You thought you'd better be tough Nobody gets past The trembling wire And all eyes on you now, on you We're all holding our breath All eyes on you now, on you (The fall) We're still holding our breath We all break a little We all break a little We all break a little when we fall And everybody keeps saying, "Get up, get up" The fall, the fall, the fall "Go on, get up" The fall, the fall, the fall

The return of the king!
Gregory’s music is magical.
I love the line “nobody gets past the trembling wire.” Makes me think about how struggles and especially grief are not optional in life. Connecting this song to the recent death of my mother has been comforting in my mind.
I love that this song's message has duality. Being told "go on, get up" after a fall could be the world around you reminding you that it moves too fast for you to have time to mourn or recover; you just have to keep your head down and keep going. Alternatively, it could be a kind of "tough love" encouragement, because sometimes all you can do is get back onto the "trembling wire" and try again. And there could be other readings too! Because GAI's writing is just incredible like that.
Signature Isakov. His music drops your blood pressure for sure. I have loved everything he has put out.
I’ve never clicked a video so fast! I’ve waited so long for this!

his lyrics are always so beautiful. August 18 can’t come sooner
I’m always in awe of how much beauty Gregory can create with simple rhythms and lyrics, and this vid captures that perfectly. Old timey magic.
I as a coming of an age (youth) learned simplicity from his songs. I will remember in my adulthood 🥹
My first exposure to his music was only today. This afternoon, I listened to only his songs. Just subscribed to this channel half an hour ago and here's another song! Great! Bless you, man.😍

I fell in love to this album. 3am mornings spent tipsy amidst the night. This is the music that wove its way into my mind as I fell harder and harder in love. I'll never not love this music the way that I love him.

I wouldn’t considered him “underrated” per se. He’s one of, if not, the biggest contemporary folk/Americana artist right now.
Thank you Gregory, your poetry is music to my ears. Can't wait to hear the ensemble of tracks on the 18th. Keep writing and inspiring. You have a larger impact on peoples lives than you think.
Oh my god a new song!
I love his music. My favourite concert I've ever been to is his
So worth the wait! This song was truly magical and I always feel GAI music in my soul.
I've been playing this song on repeat for around 30 times now. Thank you Gregory Alan Isakov for blessing the world with your music.
The trapeze swinger with birds as balloons is such a beautiful image. The deserted personified urban animals here is such a cool theme overall. I'm glad to add another song in my everyday listen beside The Stable Song, The Trapeze Swinger, Second Chances, San Luis, and If I Go, I'm Goin. Thanks, Gregory!
Just saw him perform it at Dillon Amphitheater. What an incredible experience. Amazing song that I first heard about 3 months ago. My husband just passed away after a valiant battle with leukemia. And this tightrope between life and death, and his rallies, setbacks, and then ultimately dying is somehow captured for me in this song. I could not get it out my mind. And somehow it’s a companion to my journey with this loss..
The seven of diamonds, the three of spades and the feather. Art is the universal language. Strangers seemingly relate and the paradox of not feeling understood is understood in the strangest ways. Thank you.💜
Gosh..where did 5 years go? Still listening, it was worth holding on for. What a beautiful song, so glad your back and up ☺️
The world is a little better today for this.
Beautiful. Just beautiful.
I'm crying.

It took me a few listens but now I have to say that this is the best/most complete album he's ever made. His other albums are amazing with great songs, but I feel this one is almost a concept album in what it's saying to us and the way in which it flows. Love you Greg, you're the best❤

Love it Greg! Can’t wait to hear the rest - Hopefully see you again soon! Best wishes from Scotland x
Thank you for your music Gregory. It means so much to me and I’m thrilled for the new album.
GAI is my favorite artist. Awesome new song!
This song is like a beautiful reminder that stumbling and falling is just part of the journey, and it doesn't define us. "We all break a little when we fall" - such a profound statement. It's a call to embrace our imperfections, to recognize that everyone falters sometimes. The constant "Get up, get up" is pressure, but it's also encouragement. Humans are fragile AND resilient. Leave it to Gregory to transform a simple truth into a profound melody that reminds us of the delicate beauty of "The Fall."
This is absolutely beautiful! I have been blessed by your music once again. 👑🌹✨
I’ve never wanted summer to pass as quickly as right now. August 19th - can’t wait.
Among the many gifts of this outrageously talented singer and songwriter is an ability to summon family voices from certain moments in time; in this new song (love it!), it's like he coaxes a whole chorus, once again, out of old photo albums and Polaroid shots. Even his way of intoning, "Everyone keeps sayin, get up, get up" is straight out of the mouths of certain dads at certain times. He does this in "Liars" too: imagines a moment back in time, sets it perfectly to music, and we see it crystallize in art. This dude is incomparable-- an American bard!
Soooo beautiful ❤ Some of my favorite music and one of my favorite concerts..so good
This man is a genius favorite artist by a landslide
One of my absolute favorite artists. I discovered his music in 2012 and he has been consistently playing through my radio ever since. I have seen him twice in concert and plan to see him every time it is possible for me when he is nearby. Thank you for another great one to add to the playlist!
