The inestimable John Francis
At this moment, I’m working on putting together our play list of music for during the “in-betweens” of John Francis’s amazing music. He’s going to play a set during the reception, and I’m so excited to hear it.
During the ceremony and the dancing of us in various pairs, he will also play some of our favorites by Ellis Paul, Cat Power (“Sea of Love” originally recorded by Phil Philips, if you’re curious), Ray LaMontaigne, Etta James, John Denver, and a little Jimmie Davis (“You Are My Sunshine,” which is one of the state songs of Louisiana – thank you, Wikipedia.)
I’m so excited by our music, and I’m eager to make a great playlist that reflects our taste in music but also brings in the tastes of the people we love. So please, offer your suggestions below if you would. We’d love to hear them.
Also, 11 days!!
