Vanishers

from Mansions by Future Lives

/

  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    “A lovingly-burnished reverie from enlightened caretakers of this New South.” -- Paste Magazine

    "One of the finest albums of the year. Pure Americana at its absolute best. 9/10." -- Spill Magazine

    "One of the Americana genre's most promising up-and-coming groups." -- Exclaim!

    "The word 'supergroup' can be something of a catch-all for musical collaborations, but new band Future Lives truly embody the word." -- American Songwriter

    "The album you put on when you’ve finally cleared the party of people you invited because you had to, and you start breaking out the good beer from the fridge in the basement." -- Modern Vinyl

    "Americana-tinged road songs that are ready to inspire and delight eager listeners." -- Mother Church Pew

    "It’s the best sort of orchestrated pop music, offering up lighthearted joy for us all. This is just the sort of gem you expect from a band hailing from Athens." -- Austin Town Hall

    "The newly formed supergroup have an inviting personality to their music, spiraling through multiple genres and moods with taste." -- New Noise Magazine

    "The album is awash with beautifully developed songs...delivered by some very talented musicians and vocalists." -- Bee Hive Candy

    “Only a churl would criticise an album that comes with such a heartwarming tale.” -- Echoes and Dust

    “The band’s debut album takes Hanick’s melody-driven songwriting and infuses it with an ambling, pastoral quality befitting a shaded, porch-prone respite.” -- Flagpole Magazine

    "The word 'supergroup' gets tossed around quite a bit around Future Lives, which is okay and all, but what really matters is the collective’s heady, expansive songwriting and gift for melody." -- Immersive Atlanta

  • "The pedigree of the members who play on the latest Future Lives LP should grab your attention; you’ve got players from King of Prussia, Drive by Truckers, Japancakes and more. They’ve quietly announced their debut album, Mansions, which comes out on June 27th via Soft Magic Records, so perhaps we should visit their music. There’s almost a folk indiepop vibe going on, interwoven with pedal steel and strings; it’s the best sort of orchestrated pop music, offering up lighthearted joy for us all. This is just the sort of gem you expect from a band hailing from Athens." -- Austin Town Hall

lyrics

I’m in love with you, baby,Is there need to explain?
Could I say it more clearly? Could I say it again?

I’m in love with you, honey,Is there need for reprise?
Could you not see the ocean,Through the forest and leaves?

Let’s you and me lie down, in order to take,
The time of our lives.
Let’s you and me wind down, an old country road,
And vanish from sight.

I’m in love with the ocean, I’m in love with the seams.
How they hold us together, Even when we’re in dreams.

I’m in love with the living, I’m in love with the now.
What a welcome departure, From nostalgia, and how,

It’s you and me lying down, in order to take,
The time of our lives.
Let’s you and me wind down, an old country road,
And vanish from sight.

And we won’t tell nobody,
Never heard from again.
And we won’t have a nickel,
Nor have to pretend.

Let’s you and me lie down, in order to take,
The time of our lives.
Let’s you and me wind down, an old country road,
And vanish from sight.

Don’t wait for tomorrow to come here with me,
Don’t wait for to come.
