YOU ARE NOT A GHOST (A NPR Tiny Desk Contest Meditation)
This is Regina Strayhorn, one of the Bandits. You Are Not A Ghost is a conversation between me and my ancestors - particularly with Isaac Strayhorn, my great grandfather. Isaac, an outspoken Black man, was lynched in rural Eastern North Carolina in the 1940s. He was known as the town poet. I like to think that Isaac occasionally whispers lines he didn’t get to write in his own time into my ear.
This song is a wrestling match between feelings of deep sadness, tendencies toward self abandonment, limiting patterns, deep self love, and the awareness that to live freely in the here and now is my birthright and gift to enjoy. This is true for us all.
As Bandits, all of our songs start with a see...

Radio, A Tiny Desk Transmission

We’ve been around as a band long enough that we’ve been able to enter the Tiny Desk Contest every year it’s existed, and it’s been fascinating to look back on each entry as a touchstone for the year, a kind of timeline of our lives in the form of the music we’re making. As bandits, we’ve generally met our obstacles and struggles with a great deal of optimism, gentleness, and good humor, but thi...

“I always thought we were one and the same. Inseparable until the day came when the heavens cracked open and the world split in two; how I tried through the cracks to hold onto you.” Those are some of the first lyrics to “You Have Changed” , and the lingering sentiment the three of us have been feeling, in our own individual ways, over the past couple of years. The truth is that we never know e...

A message from your Bandits OK, real talk. When we submitted our last Tiny Desk Contest entry in March of 2020, we were doing our best to project confidence and courage in the face of a global crisis that had us Bandits (and probably most people out there) increasingly questioning humanity’s ability to work together and tackle the gargantuan challenges that lie before us. We had just embarked o...

    All woke gay awareness aside, the two gentlemen dancing are, obviously, skilled and posess a great talent as actors, as well. I hope they get their due accolades. My suspicion is that years from now, when they are both famous, they will reveal that they bith straight and family or one is straight and the other is trans. And it's all awesome in the end. I have the, unimportant, feeling that several centenials from now, humanity will, actually, in a very common place fashion, decide what sex they want to be and depending on which they choose; they will be able to birth. Or maybe both can. Humanity is the wildest E Ticket To Ride.

    Lyrics: Do you live on a lonely island? Do you live on a lonely hill? Are you perched in a pot in the dry, dry air On a lonely window sill? Have you finally found that you're an only child? Do you stare at the ground where the flowers grow wild? Have you taken root, don't plan to move Till the sunlight don't come 'round? Da da da da da, da da da da da da da da da Do you think about the future? Do you think about the past? Does your time drag along like the pace of this song? Do you dream of it draggin' fast? Have you suddenly seen that you're a single seed? Do your brothers and your sisters give you woe like the weeds? Are you scared of the sun, don't plan to run Til the rain starts coming down? Oh, down in the valley, in the soil of your soul is your family. (Fa-Family) Don't dilly-dally, don't boil up a bowl, it's your family. (Fa-Family) And when you think that you've thought about all that you got Just remember that thinkin' that is thinkin' a thought (Oh!) And the voices in your head think you’re better off dead But they're the only company you got, yeah, they're the only company you got! (Kick it now!) Da da da da da, da da da da da da da da da Do you need somebody to want for? Do you want somebody to need? Or have you learned how to live out of lonesome love? Like a low-life, I call me? Perhaps you believe that there's no need to grieve You are all that you need to be alone and free Are you scared of the sun - don’t plan to run - Til the fool's gold has been found? And the sunlight don't come 'round? And the rain keeps comin' Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down

    My friend jokingly said the first thing that came to head and asked alexa to play it. He said to play “potted plant,” and we listened to it for a little longer before we stopped it. However, I remembered the name and played it for myself later. I dont think I have done something so wise in a long time. I cant stop listening to this song, for it’s perfect. Harmonies are ON POINT, and the musical insinuation of both loneliness and insanity mixed in the song just make it so much better. I hate that people don’t know this song. I think you deserve much more recognition and appreciation for this song. Seriously, kudos.

    Lyrics ♡: You have changed You have flown away How can I live without you? How can you come back someday? You have changed I always thought we were one and the same Inseparable until the day came When the heavens cracked open and the world split in two How I tried through the cracks to hold onto you I cried a river a thousand miles long I tried to find you with a lonesome birdsong I keep looking for light, I keep looking for dawn I keep trying to find you though I know that you're gone You have changed You have flown away How can I live without you? How can you come back someday? You have changed I still feel like you're hanging around Like I could get in a wagon and find you somehow But as fast as I ride or as far as I go You won't be next to me singing to the radio They say when the flood comes to ride the waves You'll be lost at sea for days and days Well I've been adrift and I'm not giving up But it's getting so hard and I miss you so much You have changed You have flown away How can I live without you? How can you come back someday? You have changed I love you and wish we didn't have to say goodbye I hate starting over and I hate losing life Once you told me that living is a dance between tension and release But i'm not ready to release, be the one thing I keep You're the one thing I need You have changed, You have flown away You have changed, You have flown away You have changed, You have flown away How can I live without you? How can you come back someday? You have changed You have changed And I am not the same.
