Do You Still Love Me - Indie Pop

The second single from the debut EP, Youth is Fading, available now for free download!

Get You Out

"Dreamer's Dawn" is a vibrant and uplifting anthem that celebrates the beauty of life and the promise of new beginnings. Blending rich melodies with a whimsical, dream-like soundscape, the song radiates hope, joy, and empowerment. With lyrics that speak to the humble inheriting the earth and hearts being prepared for more, it serves as a reminder that every sunrise brings the chance to embrace our dreams. Perfect for anyone seeking inspiration and light, Dreamer's Dawn feels like stepping into a golden morning where anything is possible.

Dreamers' Dawn

According to lead singer Dale DeLong, a good song "stops you in your tracks and paralyzes you for a moment," and Roman Candle passes that test. Although the song immediately sounds like an energetic, summery pop tune, the lyrics tell a different story:

"When I was 13, I went to see the fireworks, and during the display a girl my exact age was killed by one of the fireworks that fell over. I saw it shoot across the grass with my own eyes, and it could've very easily been me. The first verse - "stand back, they're gonna light it" - those could have been the last words she heard that night. This was an innocent girl who just wanted to see some beautiful colors as she looked up at at the sky that night. Writing this song, I started thinking about how the fireworks didn't stop after the accident, people kept on laughing and talking and enjoying their night, including me. So inside of this three minute pop song, I finally got to empathize with this girl and her family and say 'I'm sorry I cared so much about whatever I was doing to not stop and really truly feel what happened that night' - and the song reflects that contrast between a really happy, festive moment and this serious thing that happened."

Through high school friendships, two Craig's List ads (Musicians Wanted, not Missed Connections), and a few years of trial and error, OTTAWA was born on Cleveland's west side in the winter of 2014. Since then, lead singer Dale DeLong, guitarists Will Hooper and Tim Czajka, drummer Steve Crobar and bassist Chris Williams have developed a sound described by Cleveland Plain Dealer reporter Troy Smith as "a brand of garage pop that merges elements of indie-rock, blues and new wave that's quite melodic and hypnotizing."

After the release of Roman Candle on 01 July, Ottawa will embark on an eight-city tour spanning Northeast.

Happiness Is Not A Place

My Mind Is An Endless Sea (Acoustic)

My Beautiful Life

In colour

I know it feels forever,
Forever stuck in my mind
I know it´s kept in heaven
crazy how life turns around.
Was a heavy load to carry,
carry for all of you
And I know its kept in heaven
but crazy how you pierced me through

We will remember everything in colour
How we sailed the rooftops from a day to another
We will remember everything in bloom
How we got it all to glow.
And how we fought the night and won. 

I know it took me ages
ages to kick it out
I know its kept in distance
Crazy when it turns around
Was a heavy climb to follow
but everything for all of you
And I know its kept in darkness
But crazy how the light shines through

Why don’t we shine like we used to do?
Oh I know it´s not the end of the magic,

Released by AlexrainbirdRecords  // 15.02.2019

This Life

‘Don't Feel Like That’ taps into the narrator's nostalgia for the not too distant past. It's a breakup song, but not a sad one, or an angry one. Just a look back to a place where you are no longer, for better or worse.

Don't Feel Like That
