One fine day...

Paris

The Comas took a hiatus following the release of 2007's Spells, prompting co-founder Andy Herod to leave Brooklyn in search of a new muse. Several months spent in North Carolina yielded the beginnings of a new project, which further blossomed during a two-month stint in California and a subsequent return to the East Coast. After settling down in Asheville, NC, Herod began recording his debut album under a new moniker: Electric Owls. Joining him in the Echo Mountain studio were several veterans of the indie scene, including the Comas' Jason Caperton, Band of Horses/Archers of Loaf alum Matt Gentling, and the Gutter Twins' Cully Symington. The resulting record, Ain't Too Bright, was released by Vagrant Records in May 2009.

Electric Owls - Magic Show

Soul Recognition is the quiet moment when searching ends.
Not because something was found,
but because something was recognized.

A hand rests.
A rose begins to grow where fear once held its breath.
An inner child sleeps — no longer listening for danger.

This is not a story of arrival through effort,
but of return through trust.
Where love does not claim, but stays.
Where time slows enough for two heartbeats
to find the same rhythm.

Nothing is asked.
Nothing is promised.
And yet, everything is understood.

Soul Recognition lives in the space
where stillness becomes shelter,
and where the soul remembers
how home feels.

🌕 About the Song:

“The Moon’s Own Guard” is a ritual in sound — a shadowed fairy tale carved from stone and starlight. It tells of a path through a moonlit glen few can walk, and fewer still remember. A warning. A lullaby. A vow.

This song is not a war cry. It is a threshold.
It is the breath before you step into the dark.
It is for those who hear stories in the wind and obey.

🎙️ The Vocal Spell:

She speaks like prophecy—gentle, exact, and veiled in firelight.

He answers in dusk—tethered to memory, shaped by grief.
Their harmonies don’t meet in the middle. They circle, spiral, eclipse.

🌒 This song lives where:

Rain smells like prophecy.

Wolves don’t howl—they sing.

The forest is a cathedral.

And the moon is not a watcher, but a warden.

🗝️ Lyrics Sneak Peek:

“Not thieves of flocks, nor foes to flee,
But stir their wrath, and cursed you’ll be.
Yet blame them not—our world has turned;
The winds forget, the rivers churned.”

🕯️ Who is the Moon’s Guard?
A dreamer. A believer. A walker of boundaries.
Someone who heard the stories—and did not look away.

🎧 Listen. Don’t just hear.
When the wind changes, follow it.
She’s watching.
