music that brings us happiness // the lumineers

if you are new to our journal, you may not know about this little secret on youtube that we fancy.  we are excited to share it with you again in hopes that you, too, will cherish it and pull it out on a gloomy day when something has you down.  for this slice of heaven can do nothing but bring you up and make you happy.  

i am talking about a take away show.  i featured it awhile back here, on a de-stress edition of 5 of my favs.  for the past few evenings andrew and i have been partners in crime cooking away our cozy galley kitchen.  while getting our hands covered in vegetable trimmings and middle eastern spices, our ears have been getting spoiled by this lovely band and emotion they evoke.  we love the lumineers a whole bunch.  one day, by mistake, andrew discovered they have a take away show!  it was like christmas all over again and i am pretty sure i did a little happy dance upon hearing the good news.  what you are about to see and hear below is an impromptu treat where there is a lot of silly dancing, knee slapping, tambourine shaking, and smiling.  one can't help but relish in the contagious joy reflected in the faces of passerbys and eager followers.  

please, check out this video and more take aways soon.  just an fyi:  you might want to block off an evening with a bottle of vino, a bordeaux will do just fine, while you watch because you will not be able to stop and you will need to hear more.
