Jack's Mannequin: Hammers and Strings (A Lullaby)

Jack’s Mannequin began as a side-project of Andrew McMahon, who was the vocalist, pianist and main songwriter of the band Something Corporate but has now become his main project. The band is based in Orange County, California. The name Jack’s Mannequin originated from one of McMahon’s songs called Dear Jack, which was written about a friend of his whose brother was diagnosed with childhood leukemia. Andrew himself was diagnosed with leukemia, causing the concept to take on a whole new meaning.

I'll admit something to you. I haven't been as active of late because I literally hate the holidays. I don't think it's anything to do with the holidays as much as knowing that people are spending more and more time with the folks they love while I'm just doing my own thing, leading to some wonky sleep patterns,  Vitamin D deficiencies and long nights (in the worst way). Cheers to the holidays.
