spotify thoughts/ mtv 120 minutes playlist
so spotify is here in the U.S. so far as a fan, i kind of love it. as a musician, i don’t think i’ll make much money off the service, but it’s better than getting tunes stolen all day - at least i’ll get something. being able to put together playlists and have them offline on my phone/etc. for $10/month is incredible - not being reliant on a good wifi connection...

flutterandfly asked: This is going to sound cliche, but where do you get inspiration to write your songs? P.S. I have been searching for a new artist that really reached me for a while, and your new album totally did that. I am hooked.

anguncensored-deactivated201101 asked: Hey Cary - saw you last night at The Brown with Sara and Holly...y'all were fabulous! I sat by some asshole who kept shushing me every time I sang, but I sang anyway. Fuck him.

I started listening to you about a month ago, and was glad to find you on Tumblr! Sara needs to get on here, too.

OK, so this wasn't really a question...just letting you know that you...

andmb asked: Any chance you'll have more New England dates? I am now insanely hooked on your music. Still can't decide if it's the lyrics, the music or the voice that gets me or if it's just the perfect storm :)

michelesingsit asked: I am sort of ashamed that I didn't find out about you until I was watching grey's anatomy... but I did. I heard BELONG for the first time and immediately did a search for the lyrics which eventually lead me here. I love it. I'm sure you've heard it from people who REALLY matter but, Cary, you are fantastic.

callofthevoid asked: Cary Brothers, I forgot you had a Tumblr! You haven't popped up on my dash in what feels like forever. :) I just wanted to say that you are probably the only artist whose music still reaches and appeals to me now as a sophomore in college just as much now as it did back when I was in middle school. I've basically been in love with your music since I heard you on Scrubs way back when and...

lucky-lekka asked: Hey. I just wanted to tell you that you are a really amazing artist and you're going places. I heard your song on Smallville and fell in love with it. I've heard most all of your songs now and am a huge fan. When I found out you had a tumblr, all I thought was "Oh yeah, if he's got a tumblr, he's cool." So, I'm just a fan and I wanted to say good luck....
