about

The second single off my upcoming album, "Starving By Design."

Bre is one of my best friends ever, and one day in 2014, we talked about being homeless in park. So this is a song about two friends wanting to ignore all their problems and live on the lakeside. What more could you want?

P.S. This song is also a love letter to FLCL and the band that scored the show, the pillows.

lyrics

I don't know how long that door's been open,
Or how long the ducks have wanted in.
But here from this shack, I see...
Put down your tea

Hold it down to the ground
'Cause it's all our bones really need
You'll never be too far from all the friends we don't miss yet.

Why should bubbles get to fly away?
How my fingers cry to make them burst
And take their place

Compass Rose (album)

Court's music is full of heart and life. I listen to "Stars" about 25 times a day. His latest release, "While You Wait," is distributed by A Study. A Study in Expression

Easter Teeth/Moral Monsters Split
by Easter Teeth

Easter Teeth once played a show with one of Joseph's bands, Duo Contra, in a convenient store. They're loud and intense, like Dillinger Escape Plan mixed with disco. These two tracks are my favorites. A Study in Expression
