In Their Words: “‘Ways and Means’ is just a bunch of internal monologues I strung together. I guess it’s mostly about a person’s pursuit of happiness and how money can complicate all of that. Musically this song started out pretty different from how it ended up. It was pretty downbeat and chill and had different chord changes when I wrote it, but the rest of the band had other ideas. Margo Price is a friend of the band and was gracious enough to drop in and contribute some vocal harmonies which tied it all together nicely.” — Dan Cutler, The Deslondes
