    Written during a busy year on the road, Things That Used To Shine is an album about leaving some things behind…and meeting others head-on. It’s also the studio debut of Wild Ponies, a Nashville-based outfit fronted by Virginia natives Doug and Telisha Williams, who have previously toured and recorded as acoustic folk duo Doug & Telisha.

    Released by Ditch Dog Records, Things That Used To Shine finds Telisha opening up about the skeletons that have haunted her closet for years. Grammy-winning producer Ray Kennedy (Steve Earle, Lucinda Williams) recorded the album’s 12 songs in three days, running the band’s harmonies through the same pre-amps once used by the Beatles. Casey Driessen, Russ Pahl, Jake Winebrenner and other heavy-hitting roots musicians also make appearances, beefing up the band’s songs with everything from organ to pedal steel.

lyrics

The truth is sometimes I lie

I always hate to say goodbye

Even only for a little while


The truth is I don’t care who’s right

Sometimes I pick fights

When I should say I’m sorry


Chorus
Sometimes I make a mess
Sometimes a little more
Sometimes I make a fist
And don’t know what I’m fighting for


The truth is I’m a damn good friend

When I bet I go all in

It doesn’t matter what the odds are

The truth is I trust the cards

And everyday, I read the stars

Maybe sometimes I should listen

Chorus

The truth is I like to hear a train moan

It reminds me that I’m not really alone

There’s someone somewhere doing something

Solo

Chorus

The truth is I’m more broken than brave

There are things I still think about everyday

Like his footsteps in the hallway

Oooooo’s
