Midday Blue

-

Inspired by growing-up amid majestic rolling forests in northwestern Ontario, Canada and subsequently moving southward to the dusty open expansiveness of Australia, “Midday Blue” juxtaposes that soul-soothing brilliance of endless skies which exist anywhere in the world we choose to seek them.

Instrumentally paring back from the complex musical arrangements of my other recent releases, this electronic-acoustic hybrid instead seeks to underscore the innate expressiveness of voice and lyric – whilst also highlighting the remarkable nuance that accomplished musicians are able to convey, through their chosen instruments of expression.

Beyond my own presence “Midday Blue” showcases beautiful guest performances from Paul Wyer (Ventry | ventry.bandcamp.com ) on acoustic guitar and Emily Saaen (emilysaaen.bandcamp.com ) on piano, with finishing mix&master polish applied by returning audio engineer Deece at Omni-hieroglyphic (following vox recording FTW with Joel Taylor at Black Lodge Studios ;).

I hope you enjoy this latest offering. And if you’re feeling particularly kind, please connect and/or throw a follow on any of the platforms we might have in common per...

Shearing through
Heatwaves pulling my eyes
Up past dust clouds - free
Earthed my feet propel me
Down and forward
As my head tilts back to see

Midday blue
Reminds me what I’ve come here for
Timelessness unfolding around me
Expanding into midday blue
My path balancing earth and sky
And spanning far horizons beyond these

Clearing now
Stillness muffling my steps as
Whirling dust fades - free
Distant haze obscures this
Journey’s end but
In my mind is where I’ll be

Midday blue
Reminds me what I’ve come here for
Timelessness unfolding around me
Expanding into midday blue
My path balancing earth and sky
And spanning far horizons beyond these

With every step I’m closer
And farther away
From where I’ve gone to where I’ll go
Are they the same under midday blue
Resounding why I’ve come this far
Footfalls echo brightly upward
Memories alight beneath this -

Midday blue
Reminds me what I’ve come here for
Timelessness unfolding around me
Expanding into midday blue
My path balancing earth and sky
I'm spanning far horizons beyond these
