Riley More explains that Jac Zinder was killed in an automobile accident, and provides details about an upcoming memorial service for Jac at Mr. T's Bowl, scheduled for that night, for the 310-CUT-FOOT line as follows:

Hi, it's Riley. I just found out that Jac Zinder was killed Thanksgiving. This is not a joke. There will be a memorial Fuzzyland at 8 o'clock tonight. That's Friday night. You all can go. I'm sorry, it's Saturday night tonight. That's right. But this is not a joke. I guess his girlfriend was in the car, and some drunk driver hit his side of the car. I guess she's going to be okay. She's in the hospital or something. And, I guess I'll see you at a real pleasant Fuzzyland this evening. Bye.

This rhythmic/melodic track mixes roots of singer-songwriter and soul but it’s mostly guided by incurable hope. I started writing it noticing the seemingly sudden cultural shifts in the world. Inspired by the tonal simplicity of Michael Kiwanuka’s music and the inescapable conviction of Cormac McCarthy’s writings. I hope it makes you feel a bit reflective if not happy to be here. Above all else, thanks for the listen! Be sure to follow for more music coming real soon.


Lyrics:

Such a curious thing
we found ourselves in
what a beautiful thing
We got our heads in the clouds
and feet stuck in the mud
there’s a smile on our face
and poison in the blood

But ain’t nobody got no sad tomorrow’s
and nobody finding shooting stars in the sand
even when they’re counting all their sorrows
maybe we’ve forgotten who we are
forgotten who we are

There’s a bottle in the ocean
with plans that came undone
there is hope in disaster
there is grace beyond the sun
there are words with no meaning
a cure left on the vine
and there is power in forgiveness
there’s a life run out of time

No Sad Tomorrows
