Laramie, WY, based duo Dauphin and Laura Jean Mills sing "Heart Says Move" for the Wyoming Arts Council's Wyoming Independent Music Initiative. Video shot and edited by Square State Film with sound by Will Ross.

In Dauphin, Jason Burge keeps the South in his voice and brings the Gothic out West, where he teams up with Northerner Ray Mitchell for gruff songs with sweet harmonies and singing guitar leads. Here's a tune from their album, "Prodigal Songs for the End of Days."

My aunt Mot sent me this awhile back in a moment of what must be been psychic knowing. True, I share many features with Yosemite Sam, have since childhood. Always explosive and creative at cursing. But how could she know, that in this birthyear that
Took these honeysuckle cuttings ( straight up broke em by hand) 10 days ago when fishing the Hutt. Got nearly knocked down by their perfume, and for a second was 10 years old in Mississippi again. If i had some blackberries and scuppernogs/muscidines
Boot's face has given over fully to gravity. #relax #gsp #gravity
"Will the Manton go back to his good ways? Find out next week on the #Manton" Never received hand drawn art on a delivery bag before. Hilarious. @havanacoffeeworks also, that Cuban is the best coffee ever roasted.
Just got an awesome transcontinental box-o-swag from the @thetwotracks whose new album 'Cheers to Solitude' produced by Will Kimbrough is a beauty born of fire. Check em out if you are looking to add delight in your life. Holler! #Wyoming #countrymu
