Lyrics:

This is a letter to you although 
I don't know who I'm writing to 
And if it ever gets through
I don't know if there's anything that you could do 
But there's things that you need to know. 
So many here have given up on hope 
I try to take it day by day but I can feel my soul slipping away 

So I'm writing you a letter, hoping that this letter 
will somehow make it through to you 
And if you find this letter and if you read this letter, 
will it make any difference to you? 
If it makes it through... 

If you could see it all with your own eyes
I'm pretty sure that you would be surprised 
I don't know what you see on the news, 
but no doubt they sanitize the views 
There's only so much we can say. 
They won't hesitate to cut away our tongues.
And if we disobey you can't conceive of the terrible price we pay 

So if I write a letter, if I send this letter 
will it somehow make it through to you? 
And if you find this letter and if you read this letter 
will it make any difference to you? 
Will it make it through? 

Mayday is on the move. 
A stack of letters could finally prove 
that the rumours you've heard are true. 
We need your help and we're begging you
We're crying, "Mayday! Mayday! Mayday! 
M'aidez! M'aidez!" 

We're writing these letters, hoping that these letters 
will somehow make it through to you 
And if you see these letters, if you read these letters 
it has to make a difference to you 

We're writing these letters, hoping that these letters 
will somehow make it through to you 
And if you see all these letters, if you read all these letters 
it has to make a difference to you 
It has to make it through… 

Mayday! Mayday! Mayday! 
M'aidez! M'aidez!

Letters from Gilead

The Haze & Dacey Collective - Letters From Gilead

Blue

Big Strong Man is a playful tribute to masculinity creating a lovely backdrop for femininity. “Light as a feather, when we’re together” is how she feels against his “gentle giant, nice grizzly bear” frame. Syncopated percussion, flirty echos and horns resembling early Fiona Apple, set the scene for Courtney’s vocal personality to come through in this jazzy number. Ultimately written for her tall, handsome husband; Courtney hopes it can boost a lot of guys out there and promote brands that serve the individual strengths of women and men.

Big Strong Man

A somber but heavy funky message about the times we've gone through and are still going through...

Bad Intentions

You're So Peculiar

"Glory and Honor" is a worship-filled track that features the vocal stylings of the incomparable Trey McLaughlin.

Spotify or Die

After a debut that established his lo-fi indie songwriter credentials and a follow-up that showcased his vocal versatility, the latest EP from Stephen Jaymes features three new tracks that radically expand his sound and offer messages of light in a time of growing darkness. 

The folk meditations and apocalyptic funk of Jaymes' previous releases have given way to the swinging, soulful harmonies of "Rebel Heart Disguise," the infectious Cars-like keyboards powering "Stay Together," and the driving, proudly pro-love message of "Only Light."

These songs are urgent, hypnotic, and playful, reminders of the simple pulses of positivity that ultimately prevail when hope seems lost.

Only Light

Guitar pop song about why you should put your phone down at concerts. Ala Fountains of Wayne, Tragically Hip, Weezer and Semisonic.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Kick and the Hug

Born Too Late

This version of the song is from a get-out-the-vote video we made just before the election last fall. On a whim, I decided to release it as a single.
