APPLE TREE BY WHY BONNIE

I’ve been trying to figure out how to describe “Apple Tree” by why Bonnie ever since I saw them at Kilby Court last Thursday—trying to nail down what the song sounds like. In particular, what genre would it be? I know genre doesn’t really seem to matter much anymore, though pretentious hipsters persist and continue to gatekeep despite this paradigm shift toward the genreless.*
Every year in Utah though, Velour Live Music Gallery puts on the Cowboys and Indies event, putting together a couple of indie bands and a couple of folk bands on the lineup each night. I’ve decided that Why Bonnie is the perfect fusion of the two, creating the fascinating flavor palate that is “cowboy indie.” What a fusion restaurant it would be! It’s not indie folk, but they have a little too much drawl and a little too much twang for an indie rock band.

All of this to say, “Apple Tree” by Why Bonnie is Michael J. Fox at the beginning of Back to the Future Part III when they first send him back to the Wild West (See below).

P.S. I'm really sorry about my friend's behavior a few years ago the last time you were strolling through Salt Lake. I don't really talk to him much anymore. 
*This isn’t a knock on my friends over at Subgenre blog. They’re great, and I reference them a lot while writing about music.
