about

I was friends with Philip and Flora separately before they became linked in each other's orbit. I remember spending an all night session at Bruce Tull's where Philip was amongst a crew of us that didn't stop drinking until after the sun rose. I had worked with Flora as our day jobs intersected and remember watching her play solo at the old Kendall Cafe when she didn't realize I was standing with Josh Ritter as she broke into a version of his "Come and Find Me" that got a tear flowing from his eye.

I drove to Northampton for some show and made dinner plans to meet up and hang out beforehand. Somehow I wound up as the third wheel on their first date. Weeks later, I walked in to see them sitting around a guitar sharing songs for the first time, and it was evident that the connection between the two of them was something significant. Now they've been married for a dozen years and have a kid who just past the 20 month milestone.

Philip had come in and done a solo set for his last record during WMBR's pledge drive last fall, so it was an easy ask to see if they'd be game for a Pipeline! @ Home contribution. When they picked Devo for the cover tune I was all the more intrigued and the downer folk approach they took seems like the soundtrack that might have been rolling around Mark Mothersbaugh's head as he was lost in the delirium of his Covid experience.
