Rock, Pop, Folk, World, Country

When I first heard today’s selection by American indie rock/alternative/Americana singer, songwriter and guitarist Israel Nash (aka Israel Nash Gripka, b. 1981), it brought to mind the long-running American/English/Canadian folk-rock supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, though scanning their catalogue, I don’t think it really matches their sound. Another thought was the American rock group Creedence Clearwater Revival, but again, I’m not sure if that’s a match either. Finally, I recognized it is probably the 1969 song “Down by the River” by Canadian-American singer, songwriter and musician Neil Young (b. 1945) played with his band Crazy Horse that I’m reminded of by elements in Nash’s “Rain Plans.”

“Rain Plans” is a moderately long song at seven minutes and nineteen seconds, but its lyrics are brief; two short verses begin with the same line, and a chorus plays twice, and there is an extended outro. The song’s premise seems simple: life is filled with uncertainty (thus, rain plans), and this is in contrast with the constancy of his lover.
