Lyrics
Red moon rising like a fire in me
So many questions, she asks them all to me
I have to answer most curiously
Scarlet angel
I am too small to see
Earn earn, shuffle round the big city
Burning the rubber down,
Crossing the hot concrete
I’m gonna leave town, there is someone to meet
She turns her head around a full 360
Bedroom rising from an old growth tree
Bring out the sawmill
Cutting the twelve inch beams
Building a pattern a reservoir to fill with dreams
Rings like saturn, telling their old stories
Windmill turn and turn eternally,
What do you yearn for
Where do you long to be?
I’ve been here before looking at the wild country
Opening the screen door, talking with Diane Lee
(That’s my grandma!!!)
Radio singin’ from the corner of the kitchen
I’ve got the oven on I got the onions wishin’ they hadn’t made me cry
Filling the sink with dishes
Lettin’ em air dry
Waitin’ for the wind’s permission
Too many movies got me shivering and shy
Turning the lights out glisten’ in the owl’s eye
Glimmer like lightning
Under the violet sky, shimmer like diamonds
Watching the red moon rise

If these fools came up in the 70’s, they’d be a household name today. Rock n’ Roll Hall of Fame, all that.
Listening to this in my prison cell with the volume low so I don't get caught by the CO. God bless
You're my hero
Co caught him and took him out back…he told me
Bless you pal, bet you feel free listening to this, no one can cage your mind
Reminds me of fishing out at sea for days… I would have zero music but would carry a song with me for the trip in my heart and would sing to myself over the loud machinery hauling back. Even if they take away your tunes - keep a song in your heart. Much love!
I am from the older generation. I often hear people my age say that new music is not as good as decades ago. I tell them you forgot how to listen to music. Listen to music such as this. It is wonderful!
YES! I'm 44 and agree :)
Yup. Yup yup yup.
Most people are just being plain lazy listeners
Yep
Agreed, there is great music in every era, you just have to look and find what you like
The best grandma shoutout in music history
Bedroom rising from an old growth tree, Bring out the sawmill, Cutting the twelve inch beams, Building a pattern a reservoir to fill with dreams, Rings like saturn, telling their old stories - just a perfect verse god damn
Impossible to overstate how much this album has lifted my spirits in 2022.
It came just in the knick of time. Idk if that’s even how you spell “knick” but you get tha jist:)
Same here buddy
This song and Simulation Swarm officially made me a Big Thief band. Can't get either song out of my head. THAT'S MY GRANDMA!
Agreed! simulation swarm is a stone cold instant classic.
I smile every time I hear that line!
woah i just realized i typed band instead of fan. gotta lay off the dope
@@JustinBanks 😃😃✌️
@@JustinBanks :)
Whenever I’m feeling down, or overwhelmed I’ll put this song on repeat. It lifts that worry and weight. Thank you.
*Heard this song on the local radio station the other day on a quick errand. Had to Shazam it at a red light because it was so beautiful and catchy!🙏🏼*
A few years ago I remember reading a comment on the internet from someone who had gone on a cruise and met Adrianne's grandma. I have searched for that comment everywhere but I can't find it anymore unfortunately. But now, oh glorious day! I can finally put a face to that grandma that I saw in my mind every time I thought of that comment! Bless you Big Thief!
I’m not American and still love country music !
Bright light in a dark world
As remarkable as the studio version is....was fortunate to watch Big Thief perform 'Red Moon" live and WOW y'all it's LEGENDARY!!!
As if I needed another reason to love this band!! I would never imagined that this would rival live at Levon Helm Studios. Everything about this song makes me happy and goes with my hula hoop flow! 🥰
We’re witnessing the emergence of an exceptional songwriter…. Loving the new record.
she emerged years ago
Been witnessing
Mick Fleetwood over here with that buttery smooth shuffle
Fiddle man doing some fiddling/keys
Buck making Buck faces and making it look easy (it is not)
Hippie Ying Yang bass player guy, he is pretty good
Adrianne, the voice of an angel, too pure for this world
My favorite song on this record, for sure.
Bahaha this comment is gold 😂 hippie ying yang bass player guy made me cackle. I swear Big Thief comment sections are the best.
I love this live performance. Got a Waterboys Fisherman’s Blues era feel to it.
thank you for the reference, good ear
100%, I'm glad we think the same way!
I, too, got the oven on, and i got the onions wishin they didnt make me cry
The way their genius work is almost effortless and playful is so incredible to me, I hope to find people like this for myself
Ikr
Genius?
@@MemphianSounds you don't think it is? It's just my personal opinion, to me they get everything right and make me feel all these emotions from their songs. It's magical to me.
@@julianbleh they're solid - and I like the records - but there isn't any aspect from the compositions to the playing to the recording that's exemplary. They're a pretty solid indie-folk/alt-country outfit
@@MemphianSounds oh damn well I'm no pro at composition and etc, I just go off my feelings when I listen. So cool that you know that stuff though!
BDS brought me here. And was I in for a surprise. I've found my favorite new indie band!
Me too 😊
I LITERALLY CANT GET ENOUGH! thank you angels for making such sweet music. I love you. And I send love to all Big Thief fans♥️♥️♥️
I love a drummer that looks like they're stoked and having a good time.
why does every single song of theirs make me bawl
i'm gonna destroyy my eardrums with song 😩
LOL
I love that Mat Davidson (on fiddle here) of Twain plays on this record. He’s a brilliant musician and fits right in with Big Thief.
They always act like making musical magic is no biggie, lol. ❤️ them!
Big Thief, thank you eternally for your truly wonderful music, it means the world to me and so many other people.
Adrianne and Buck - I was playing with Rudy (Rudy's Music) at his shop semi-recently when I played a lick from "Indiana", at which point his face lit up - he told me all about how you guys used to go to his shop in soho and has been a fan of yours ever since. We geeked out together about your records for a good 50 minutes after that!!
Often have tears of elevation in my eyes listening to Big Thief. So pure with such rawness and layers. Love you guys!
I'm listening at work and gotta stop myself from crying happy years
I find myself crying quite often to their music. And I really don’t mind. They indeed lift the spirit and force it to be seen.
What a creative force this band is. Enjoyed finding their stuff after hearing Cattails on BBC Radio 6.
This song is so beautiful. It makes me feel nostalgic for some reason.
Nice team got to love classy songs 👍🛶
I get SOOOOO MANNNYYYY responses from colleagues saying "why would anyone care about rehearsal like performances being filmed"? THIS is why! I've ALWAYS been drawn to authentic performance, is that not what being drawn to an artist in the first place isn't about???
The future is vids like this, I love it, always will! LOVE the new album, and LOVE Big Thief, Ya'll make my life better in unique ways :)
Love love love the shot of the grandma at "that's my grandma"
Beautiful, gems, delites my soul, spirit flys
This song makes my little folky heart so happy. Paints a history I never had.
I love this ghetto shit
The violin is gorgeous on this. Beautiful album. I love the way the sound constantly changes but still feels comforting and recognisable - it's cause the heart and spirit is always there. So funnnn and inspiring!
Max so groovy on the bass!!!! Hell yeah
Big Thief's music steals my heart.😍
RMHS Dennis?
I can't say enough good things about this
Can't stop playing this one.
once in a generation band
what a gift, think this might be my fav off the album
Adrienne Lenker is a wonderful songwriter
Better than the 70's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Imma be the lyrics guy for this gem of a song)
Red moon rising like a fire in me
So many questions, she asks them all to me
I have to answer most curiously
Scarlet angel, I am too small to see
Earn earn, shuffle round the big city
Burning the rubber down, crossing the hot concrete
I'm gonna leave town, there is someone to meet
She turns her head around a full 360
Woo
Bedroom rising from an old growth tree
Bringing out the sawmill, cutting the 12 inch beams
Building a pattern, the reservoir to fill with dreams
Rings like Saturn telling their old story
Windmills turn and turn eternally
What do you yearn for, where do you long to be?
I've been here before, looking at the wild country
Open the screen door, talking with Diane Lee
That's my grandma!
Radio singing from the corner of the kitchen
I got the oven on, I got the onions wishing
They hadn't made me cry, filling the sink with dishes
Letting them air dry, waiting for the wind's permission
Too many movies got me shivering and shy
Turning the lights out, glistening in the owl's eye
Glimmer like lightning under the violet sky
Shimmer like diamonds, watching the red moon rise
Ooh!
big thief have been crushing it with this singles, coming for AOTY
DANCING SPINNING SINGING WOO
Your music makes me feel everything and anything between recognition of the small self, all the way through the complex interconnections of our true nature. I am forever grateful to you guys. Stay gentle and compassionate 💟
Just heard this for the first time on the radio. I thought it was Donna the Buffalo, when I heard that it wasn't I had to track down who it was. Big Thief, you're awesome!
🔴🌑
James is so goddam right: youè never too old to discover (great) new music! Big Thief serve as the perfect example; it`s rather a question of attitude and open-mindedness. This band is just great and their latest album gives you so many "good vibrations"!
Thank you for all that you do.
Good music. Great voice. I love it.
I love you guys!!!
So much looking forward to see you in Montreal in a month! Can't wait.
Looking forward to seeing them in Manchester next week.Love this
I CANT BELIEVE WE GET THE ALBUM ON FRIDAY
I got it on vinyl, it’s incredible :) should be excited
quite a performance! love from Polan!
I like the vibe of home studio in this video
Sehr schöne Energie, der Schlagzeuger ist stark, danke
Discovered yesterday, already my new favorite band! Masterpiece has made me cry a couple of times already. Wow, total wow!
Saw this band in Dallas a few months ago. Saw Adrianne walking her dog outside smiling before the show but was too nervous to say hi. Went with one of my bestfriends and we just had such a great experience the whole time. Left the venue and got in traffic due to a highway shut down so we jumped a grassy median to get home. My favorite concert of all time from my favorite band. Will never forget it, love it!
this sounds like a warm summers eve as you walk slowly down an old country road with your closest and dearest friends - and i am here for it!
I could listen to them all night
I'm quite sure that's Dr. Dog's Scott McMicken sitting behind Adrienne. He did the engineering in Tuscon, Arizona, right? Fantastic.
This song feels like heaven
Your listening to BDS made me come here to hear a band I had never heard before. My best friend is in Gaza. Thank you for showing integrity and for standing up for human rights and dignity. New fan ❤️
Wow! Awesome stuff!
I was hovering over the thumbs up, then smashed that bastard when I saw grandma.
thank you guys for this new masterpiece.
Beautiful song.
literately love this band
I heard this song on the radio and immediately feel for it. Absolute gem. 🖤
You guys are an incredible band! I hope you realize it and keep pushing the envelope and pursuing your dreams! The new album is amazing! You guys should be as big Radiohead! That’s the talent level here :)
I just discovered this band..quite by accident, by checking out their ad video here on RUclips....Normally, I do not listen to the music ad vids for more than a few seconds..I turn it off, fast.... if it doesn't really get my attention, if it doesn't turn me on , and, well, I gotta say, this one DOES TURN ME ON.........VERY COOL SOUND......As a musician , singer , song writer myself, for over the last 40 yrs, I can say, that these folks have something very special, and I hope they get really famous....There are so many influences I hear in this.....Right off, I think of Fleetwood Mac..( especially the drummer here..wow)..I also think of Neil Young.....I think of Grateful Dead...and more...I mean , this stuff REALLY turns me on, and is very inspiring to me....YOU GO FAR...."BIG THIEF".......You certainly stole MY attention.....Keep on doing more of your beautiful music...I am shariing this on my FB page.. THANKS ....
Found by happenstance - looked up a long-ago coworker on a whim, found he loves this - & of course someone following him on Twitter apparently thought this made him a fan of country music!
Story of my life, too.
I don't have the words to describe how much I love this. This record delights me! ☮️

Ooh
Thank You Big Thief for standing up for justice and the oppressed.
seeing you all perform in houston this fall is the closest to holy i’ve ever felt. the way your instruments and vocals dance and resound is unparalleled. adrianne, your words are magic-i’m currently at university doing a semester long project on your poetry. I listened on vinyl on wednesday because I just couldn’t wait!!!
my question is-in the deepest bits of your bones, what color do you all feel like right now??
secondly, which is each of your favorite songs on the album? (mine personally are promise is a pendulum or blue lightning, of the new ones, and simulation swarm of the previously released)
all of these words really just sum to: I have love for each of you all through your work. I wish you ease, grace, and peace.
Great song!
Didn't know this band before today: what a beautiful band! I'm quickly gonna get addicted :)
the drummer ❤
The new album is phenomenal!!!
The passion is sublime
Ever since i heard Not I'm a huge fan. Your music hits different coming from someone who mostly listens to hiphop
beauty song! Harmonies sound great
They are musical geniuses. Everything they put out is just so impressive. I gotta set time aside to listen to this new album in full with no distractions.
this is kind of like a vulfpeck style vid and i love it sm
WOW. No words.
thank you
🗣 *This is special!* 💯🔉🎵🎵🎵
Adrianne your lyric writing is inspiring. Love the new record. It's sprawling like the White Album or Stephen Stills' Manassas IMO. Blurred view has such a different feel than the other tracks. It's otherworldly. It'll take a few listens to adjust to that one. Thank you
I love modern americana
Best album of 2022. And I’m not really into folk/country.
question for James: little things is one of my fav songs on the record because of how many different sounds are happening within the song while still managing to capture the essence of each instrument in the mix, what was the process like for mixing that song?
Agreed! That's a great question. I love the texture of that song. Its an impressive mix.
heya it's james. the mix was fairly simple. shawn mostly dialed in the sound for the main take that you hear on the record while he was tracking it. we recorded with the delay because adrianne was singing to that in the headphones. we edited some of bucks guitar part processed a few moments so they are bigger and added a atambourine and then adrianne sanga bunch of adlibs which i then comped and edited. but the sound was pretty much there, shawn crushed. there were some little tweaks but mostly it was all there. shawn is really good at mixing.
That you have a Rockers poster up on the wall just tops this off! Thanks for such a banging country tune, lots love from England x
so good
thank you big thief, I needed this album
