M. Ward Quote
"I think the songwriting style of (Buddy Holly's) period was superior. There was a certain amount of joy in it, no matter how sad the song is. You get joy in listening to these Buddy Holly or Roy Orbison sad lyrics. I'm attracted to songs that have balance between the darks and the lights and giving them all equal opportunity." - NPR Musicnpr music: Exclusive First Listen: M. Ward's Hold Time
