Maple, Trench and Here Comes the Sun on a Kalimba

This will definitely soften your heart after a stressful day. It's been a long while, I think, since Maple and Trench were last featured here, and after seeing their latest, I just had to share. A wonderful pooch and some peaceful guitar, who'd think it would be so heart lightening to watch a set of these?

I am pleased with myself that I understood the post through the title alone. Thanks for sharing this, it was definitely something I needed to close out this day/week.

My (and nearly 1 million other peoples') favourite of theirs is Can't Help Falling in Love.

It actually inspired me to make a kalimba out of wood scraps and pieces of steel strip from a drain cleaning thingy during the lockdown. Poor planning made it end up with 15 keys instead of the 17 keys I was shooting for, but it's still a fun and relaxing instrument to play around with.
