The Muscadettes - Pearl And Oyster

Sometimes life feels like a puzzle, timing, choices, wonder all scattered like pieces on a table. This piece is about learning that the goal isn’t to be “the most successful,” but to find your true path, the one your soul needs to walk. To stay awake to beauty. To keep the childlike wonder alive, even when life wants to turn it all into routine.

I want to thank my friend Perry Stacks for the inspiration. When I shared Footnote to the Stars with him, he told me it resonated deeply, reminding him of Dr. Robert Puff’s Happiness Podcast. That reflection struck a chord in me, and from that spark, The Path began to take shape.

This is a spoken journey with a sung chorus, a reminder that life is not about racing to win, but about synchronizing with the rhythm already inside us… and walking it step by step, with wonder.

[Verse 1]
Timing
It feels like an enigma
Pieces scattered across a table
We search, we wait
We wonder if we’re too late
But maybe timing isn’t about chance at all
Maybe it’s about listening…
And stepping when the soul says go

[Chorus]
Synchronize my heart
With the rhythm of the sky
Not the world’s idea of winning
But the reason why
Guide me to the true path
Where my soul can walk free
Life’s not about success
It’s about finding the path for me

[Verse 2]
The world shouts: climb higher, chase faster, be more
But some victories are quiet
Like keeping love
Like finding peace
Like walking in step with the music inside

And don’t let the things
You once found new and beautiful
Become routine
Get back the childlike wonder
The wide-eyed awe that whispers
Everything still matters

[Refrain]
Bring back the wonder
Bring back the light
See with the eyes
Of a child tonight

[Chorus]
Synchronize my heart
With the rhythm of the sky
Not the world’s idea of winning
But the reason why
Guide me to the true path
Where my soul can walk free
Life’s not about success
It’s about finding the path for me

[Outro]
So maybe life is not about destiny carved in stone.
Maybe it’s about walking
Step by step
Choice by choice
With wonder in our eyes
Until the path beneath our feet
Feels like home.

Bring back the wonder

By the time he was 15, singer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Carter Tanton was already playing bar shows in his hometown of Baltimore.  Two years later, he caught the attention of Gary E. Smith, best known for discovering and producing The Pixies.  After working together for a year, they parted ways, but Tanton never slowed down.  In the mid-2000's he released a couple of EPs with his band Tulsa, prompting Rolling Stone's David Fricke to claim "…his indie-seraphim voice is not of this world…", and after a particularly impressive live set KEXP's John Richards said "…he's one of the best singer-songwriters in the country today."  Beyond his critical acclaim, Tanton's early work was cited as an inspiration by his old friend Adam Granduciel of The War on Drugs.  As Granduciel recalled in an interview with Pitchfork, "He was sleeping in someone's basement, playing every instrument, going through this breakup,...That was the first time I saw someone make music obsessively. I’d never seen anyone living inside of something, to that level."  

Over the years, Tanton has toured and recorded with numerous artists including Marissa Nadler, Strand of Oaks, Lower Dens, and The War on Drugs. In 2012, he assembled Freeclouds, his first collection of songs for Western Vinyl.  A couple of years later, Tanton moved to England where he wrote all of the songs on his new album Jettison the Valley. The change of environment, and his rediscovery of early British influences including Richard Thompson, Nick Drake and John Cale sparked a powerful shift in perspective, which led him to write his most cohesive and personal work to date.  Other than the pedal steel featured on two songs, Tanton engineers and plays every instrument on the album.  His old friend and collaborator Marisa Nadler contributes lead vocals to "Jettison the Valley", and Sharon Van Etten sings on "Twenty-Nine Palms" and "Through the Garden Gates".   

More about Jettison the Valley in his own words: 
"Jettison the Valley began in a little dot of a town outside Bristol called Hambrook in the Fall of 2013. I had just moved to England with my girlfriend where we lived in a caravan on her family's plot of land with the M5 motorway on one side, and a horse farm on the other.  To get away from the incessant low rumbling of cars, I often walked along the area's ancient public footpaths that carve strange ways through the countryside. On those walks, my previous 30 years in America billowed and collapsed in front of me. As I stood there in the blowback, the constant push of time seemed to finally relent, and I found enough distance from it to see my past in clear broad strokes.  After a few months we moved to Oxford and lived in a little attic apartment up on a hill. I spent most days watching the weather roll through the valley and writing these songs about my relationship ending.  Eventually, I felt I had to come back to the states to record them.  I consider this my first solo record. The other two releases I've put out under my own name since 2005 were simply collections of scattered recordings, mixtapes essentially. Jettison was written in one long sitting, each song feeding the next."
