The Oh Hellos is a folk band that always gives all the feels. I first listened to them 3 years ago when “Hello My Old Heart” popped up on my Spotify discover weekly.

What I didn’t know— they have a whole album based on C.S. Lewis’ writing. (side note: I’ve been reading Mere Christianity by him and I highly recommend) Thanks to my lovely Benjamin, he updated me on this beautiful album in the car on a three-hour drive back to Dartmouth.

I am an emotional person (most people know this); yet, it has been a long time since I have cried this much (Ben was crying too so).

This song is about the demon called Wormwood in “The Screwtape Letters”. I don’t know the whole entire story, but this song convinces me more that I have to read this book.
