about
In March of 2020 the COVID virus shut everything down while we were on tour. I went home to Montana to quarantine for a month, it was, and is, a strange time, and getting stranger still. This is a piece of art I created from the period, it's not meant to be a single or such, just a memoir. I didn't have much with me at the time, I used a single mic in the garage and played an old drum kit, guitar and bass in layers. My cousin Doug, my quarantine partner, shot the video scenes.
lyrics
LYRICS:
when the sun is rising, in the sky, I just want you around
and when the clouds go drifting, gently by, I just want you around
I could go on forever, reasons why, I want you around
and you needn't bother, with a reply, I just want you around
and we can stay for a while in my mind
and I can play in our memories for a time.
watching the news on the tv, ain't easy, without you around
the world is locked in chains of uncertainty, and I want you around
it's dark and heavy, there's a virus in the air, and I'm down
even if I can't be with you, don't go, I just want you around
and we can stay for a while in my mind
and I can play in our memories for a time.
from now on things will never be the same
all along, I'm calling out your name
I just want you around
