Joseph are the Portland-based, eerily-flawless harmonizing three-piece you’ve probably heard about. In case not, let’s jump in and show off one of their videos right now:

Mount Rushmore, By Decade
Thursday, July 3, 2014 10:17 — 0 Comments
Below is our list of the four most important Americans in terms of their impact on American culture per decade. It’s our Mount Rushmore of each decade!

Will liked that the park was neglected, and inconvenient for anyone who knew him. The few visitors were strays, like the woman on the bench a buckeye tree over, closer to the gate. For several weeks she had arrived on Fridays, at noon, in a tatty coat and hat, sat a half-hour or so looking expectant, then dallied out, alone. He was intrigued.

Jeff Fielder, Tim Dijulio and Justin Davis can play the effing guitar! They pack houses. They are legends in Seattle and they play with legends all over the world.

During the first wave of thunderstorms Mom promised we could touch her boobs–if we wanted–but first we had to prove our maturity by snorting a pyramid of fire ants during lightning strikes. She licked the coconut Popsicle and nestled the frosty rectangle into the slats between the rotting wood of our porch. It was white and icy crystals glistened in the dusk. The tips of our noses were sunburned with darkened freckles. Fireflies searched for places to hide. Termites scurried as Mom shut the screen door to quarantine the mosquitoes.
The answer isn't poetry, but rather language
