The highs and lows, laughter and pain, hope and fear, doubts and belief,” says lead singer/guitarist Jon Foreman. In title track he writes, “‘Every blessing comes with a set of curses. I got my vices. I got my vice...

Jon Foreman: This is What Luck Smells Like →
My mind wanders… I watched Braveheart the other day to gear up for a show in Scotland: good ol’ William Wallace. Now there’s a man’s man: a fighter and a lover — at least the Hollywood version.
