Blindside Whiteout Should have seen it coming. The coldest day of winter, the 6th of November. Who says money can't buy it? Progress, not what I thought it was. Is this the best that we can do? I used to believe in terrible things. Heaven and hell and redemption, but prayers go by unanswered these days. If you don't see, you don't have to believe. So close your eyes and pray it all away.

This year, more than I could say that I grew, more than I could swear I finally knew, if it's a choice, I'm not sure I could choose. It's true. Outside the snow falls gently on the roof. In the streets, the cars carve out the grooves. A song hangs in the air, sung out of tune. When it's real, it can heal, it can kill, but it will not lie down. I know, I had it once. It was enough but everyone who's found their love will join their hands and sing. What's left for me? The minor keys? You hide out in the air in my room. You fill my mouth and fall out of it, too. But in the light you linger out of view. So it goes, uproot a tree and put it in your home, cut down after it's had it's time to grow, and from it's branches we can hang our hopes.

about

Hey, it's March! I'm super excited for this month's single because it features a first for us, a song written by Duane! Duane's got the chops, but doesn't often share them with the rest of us. We think it's a pretty rad jam. Rounding out the month is the long-gestating, full band version of our very first original Christmas song, Hang Our Hopes. We used to play this jam live and took it in a different direction than the solo demo I recorded so many years ago. I'm pretty happy with how it all came together.

Until next month!
