Rising Appalachia - I Believe In Being Ready (Official Audio)

I Believe In Being Ready- An old southern gospel song that the great folk singer Tim Obrien reworked poignantly. We first sang this song around our candle-lit living room table with our mother and a group of women who would get together weekly to belt out all the old songs.  Drawn to its haunting, modal melody and stark lyrics, we put the heavy drum pulse of the bodhran behind it to rattle the ribcage. It is both apocalyptic and soothing to call forth and sing these words. There is so much interwoven in the verses that references hope and revelry till the end; when we perhaps will all ‘turn round and just start over’.
