Band name?

Maudlin is the sadness and melancholy resulting from the desire and drive and passion to find the well, a symbol for all odd knick-knacks out in the woods, an escape that is just out reach.

Thanks
 
Byron was heavily influenced by the Jessica McClure tragedy and it informed the decision of the band's name as well as the melancholy attitude of each and every song.
 
here are some quotes from another messageboard I'm reading, regarding that.

BABY JESSICA IS NOW 18

WHAT DO YOU TALK ABOUT ON A DATE WITH A GIRL LIKE THAT
"SO I HEARD YOU FELL DOWN A WELL ONCE"

you know she never shuts up about it now..."yeah that reminds me of the time i was in a well" "you know that's funny, when i was in the well..." "seriously guys, i was in a well". i'd hate to know her.


I wonder if I asked her how she's doing... if she'd say, "I'm doing well."
