This song definitely gave me a new perspective. It has influenced the way I approach writing my own music.

DAN AUERBACH - GOIN' HOME

Something about this song shakes my soul. This is emotional, but strong. Refined, but tribal. Raw, definitely raw.

I imagine the lone wayfarer coming to the end of his (or her) bitter journey. Having loved and lost, having sunk to the lowest of lows, the wayfarer returns to a simpler time--that hopeful place far and away from here. 

Brand new Australian singer-songwriter-producer Oliver Hugh Perry debuts his eponymous EP, D.D Dumbo EP, this November 12. I know Tropical Oceans was released a week and a half ago, but if this song is any indication of this guy's talent, I cannot wait for this EP. 

D.D Dumbo has a perfect blend of garage rock edge and indie folk sensibility. It's like Bon Iver and The Black Keys--my two favorite bands--had a baby over in Australia. 

I have a feeling I'm going to be seeing a lot more D.D Dumbo. Don't sleep on this one!


Grab the EP early!

Lyrics:
My eyes blew out I could finally see 
warm magical tropical oceans 
organs of people circle the sea 
I fell back to perpetual motion 

I opened my skull you were looking at me 
oh you and your cousins chihuahua 
we all howled a chord and extended the three 
freddy was there and re-mixed it after

Lyrics:
I’ve seen better days, dripping down your face
We don’t have to talk, let’s dance
For all the times you felt alone, dreaming better
I see better, better days
Too dumb to say goodbye that's some cliché shit, make me wanna cry
Just know that every time I look in your eye, I see better, I see better, better days
 
Try to remember, that you can’t forget
Down with history, up with your head
For sweet tomorrow, she never fell from grace
We might still know sorrow but we got better days
 
I seen better ways, some won’t believe
But I don’t need much more than faith
For all the times you felt alone
Dreaming better, dreaming better, better ways
Too dumb to say goodbye, now that’s some give up shit, make me wanna cry
Just know that every time I look in your eye, I see better, I see better, better days
 
Try to remember, that you can’t forget
Down with history, up with your head
For sweet tomorrow, she never fell from grace
We might still know sorrow but we got better days
 
Better days.
Guess who's back in town.

Lyrics:
I've been trying to pretend
That death is my friend
Oh, this life 
Yes, this life ain't for me now
 
I've been lying to myself
Not to nobody else
Oh, this life
Yes, this life ain't for me now
No
 
LIAR 
I'm telling the truth to y'all
HIGHER 
Gonna give a little proof to y'all
HIGHER 
I'm gonna jump in the fire
 
Well I walked into black
Said I weren't coming back
Saw my angel in blue
She tell me "This life ain't for you"
Oh, this life
Tell it to me - this life ain't for me now
 
I woke up feeling new
'Cause now I know this life is for you
Yes, this life
Oh, this life ain't for me now
It's for you!
 
LIAR
I'm telling the truth to y'all
HIGHER
I'm gonna give a little proof to y'all
I'm gonna jump into the fire!
