Sunday September 12, 2021 “Mine Forever” Lord Huron
Led by Michigan native Ben Schneider, the Los Angeles-based Lord Huron take their name from one of the five Great Lakes. Lord Huron found mainstream success in 2014 with the release of their second album, Strange Trails, whose closing track, "The Night We Met," reached an even larger audience in 2017 thanks to its appearance in the Netflix series 13 Reasons Why.
If they only recorded one song, “Ends of the Earth” they would probably be doing OK in that it has appeared in the Showtime television series Shameless and FXX's Man Seeking Woman. The song also appears in the films Endless Love, Walking with Dinosaurs, and A Walk in the Woods, as well as at the TV show Community. It is also used in the Netflix series Longmire, in the Netflix documentary Unbranded, in TV commercials for jewelry company Zales, automaker Hyundai, and sporting-goods company Eddie Bauer. This song is also played during the end credits of the film, Road Hard and country singer Kenny Chesney covered it on his album Songs for the Saints.
Today’s song “Mine Forever” appears on Lord Huron’s fourth and most recent album Long Lost.
