about
Spring is on the way, bringing the vital warmth with it. We're gearing up to release music from both the past and the future and are in the early stages of booking new shows.
For now, here's an upbeat version of Lily Three. This hi-res download is free if you choose it to be. As long as you're listening, we'll keep rocking, softly or otherwise. Yes!
(The first drum beat is my palm on an acoustic guitar. It was hot and my hand was sticking to the wood. If you listen closely, you can hear it in the smack.)

lyrics
Lily Three
In twenty turns the light burns out inside the trees
Lily watch the seasons, how they always leave
Everyone knows to turn it off
That's the part that I forgot
Someday I'll stop breathing
I'll never stop singing
Lily we can see the corners of the sky
Your sunset lips reveal the words that we have tried
I don't know how this comes across
Bet these birds catch what I am not
(never stop singing)
Someday I'll stop breathing
My heart will stop beating
But I'll never stop singing
I'll never stop singing
In twenty turns the light burns out inside the trees
Lily watch the seasons, how they always leave
Everyone knows to turn it off
That's the part that I forgot
Someday I'll stop breathing
I'll never stop singing
Lily we can see the corners of the sky
Your sunset lips reveal the words that we have tried
I don't know how this comes across
Bet these birds catch what I am not
(never stop singing)
Someday I'll stop breathing
My heart will stop beating
But I'll never stop singing
I'll never stop singing
