ORIGIN STORY

I saw a video of Andy Santospago playing guitar along to some bass tracks posted by our mutual friend Paul Chase. I reached out to Paul. Sorta like, "Hey man, here's a chord progression. How 'bout you play some bass on it and send it to Andy?" Paul did just that.

Next thing ya know, Andy's sharing it with Bob Bradshaw who writes some lyrics and sings 'em into his iPhone. This all makes its way electronically over to Dave Westner who played drums on it and then mixed it all together. Somewhere in there, Andy added more guitars and I sang a response vocal in the chorus.

We were all psyched about the result. The idea came up that we could release the song as a single to raise funds for the Boston-Cambridge Musicians Relief Fund. Pay what you can. Thanks!

lyrics

IN THE DARK

Tell me who I am
I have slipped through a hole in the night
Tell me where I stand
where’s the light? where’s the light?
I go from here to there
I find I’m still nowhere
I try to go somewhere
But there’s no there there
In the dark
In the dark
In the dark

Tell me who I am
I have not moved in these circles before
Help me understand
what’s in store? what’s in store?
I go from here to there
I find I’m still nowhere
I try to go somewhere
But there’s no there there
In the dark
In the dark
In the dark
