Night and Day 8. Make Believe 9. Eternal Child Land of the Honeysuckle Wine is the sophomore album from Assorted Orchids, the alias of 37-year-old Massachusetts native T. McWilliams. Written and recorded in the mill town of Lowell, near McWilliams’ childhood home, Land of the Honeysuckle Wine is a continuation of – and companion to – the singer-songwriter’s 2021 self-titled debut on Whale Watch Records. The title is a reference to a lyric from “The Mighty Kingdom,” that first album’s penultimate track, in which McWilliams sings from the perspective of an explorer who discovers a lost civilization, long since abandoned, save for a solitary orphaned child. Land of the Honeysuckle Wine is an epilogue to that story – written from the perspective of that child, in that place.
