James Ghareeb | Evacuating a War, When It Rains It Tsunamis, & Songwriting While in Heartbreak
from this is TRUCK · host Alex Vespestad
James Ghareeb is a folk songwriter and one of my closest friends. Which means this one goes deep fast. James is in the middle of what he calls wreckage. A breakup he didn't want. A homeland under attack. Family in Beirut he checks on morning and night. You're gonna hear about the summer he was 11, when war broke out in Lebanon, the airport was bombed, and a US military helicopter carried him and one handbag out of the country while most of his family had to stay. And you're gonna hear why he doesn't believe when it rains it pours anymore. He plays for us "Time Enough". He texted me the night he wrote it and said it might be the best song he's ever written. He might be right.Listen to James GhareebSign Up for the TRUCK Newsletter Message us at: [email protected]
