about

(I'll be releasing the songs from this album a little at a time. Don't worry, it's entirely finished and a hard copy will be available soon)

Wild Hare is sort of a collection of comfort music.

These songs started coming to me back when the lockdown for Covid began and I think my mind and creative consciousness was venturing back into the familiar sounds of my childhood - acoustic laden AM radio classics - as a way to fend off the uncertainty and gloom. I think it harkens back to the sort of soundscapes you might have absorbed as a young'un while maybe recuperating from a long day of running in the grass or playing 'hide & seek' at twilight, echoing from another room, almost heard as you drift away.

Some of these tunes are genuinely meant to be uplifting songs, and others are hopefully cathartic in their expressions of sadness and loss. Though they suffer from the unavoidable transference from the underworld to the waking world and an imperfect vessel to transfer them, they benefit from the collaboration of a few of my amazing musician friends lending their considerable talents to the recordings.

I have felt as though this collection was sort of meant to be enjoyed in the background, frankly. Just put on and let 'em play, to be absorbed and not scrutinized. Let them haunt your room.

lyrics

Raise your head from the foot of the bed
Hope you've forgotten things that I said
Morning last
I'll clean up the glass
Sun behind curtains shining like brass

You need time to breathe
I believe that's a sign I can read
I'm alone, it feels like home
I believe that's a sign

Cut my chin shaving again
Red water swirling down the drain
No cure for me, lycanthropy
If I keep pretending you'll never see

You need time to breathe
I believe that's a sign I can read
I'm alone, it feels like home
I believe that's a sign
