A heady and elliptical travelogue, Way Out Weather demonstrates a radical widescreen evolution, featuring a larger band and lighting out for lusher, more expansive and impressionistic territories than Time Off (2013). This is the virtuosic guitarist and songwriter’s career-defining statement to date, a self-assured masterpiece.

Steve Gunn - Way Out Weather: "Milly's Garden" (2014, PoB-15)

Black Is The Colour

As I see time go through the open roads 
and the sun sinks low behind the rows of the grey-lined streets 
I can only see just where I should be and all this seems in the way now of the way out of the times that take me away
from the times my mind is clearer
when she's by my side and I'm nearer
to all the highs that break from all design
and all the love left to find
As the streetlights fade into morning's haze
I can only wait to find my place in the day now
and find a way out of the times that take me away
from the times my mind is clearer
and she's by my side and I'm nearer 
to all the highs that break from all design and all the love left to find
well I'll try....

As I See Time Go

I think about that night we spoke,
the lies you told,
the vows you broke, 
and I miss you even less than before.

I think about the acid tears,
the broken hearts,
the wasted years,
and I miss you even less than before.

Don't want to talk,
but soon you'll know just how I feel.

Tables turn on you now,
these things workout somehow,
tables turn on you.

I think about the old routines,
the future lost,
the shattered dreams,
and I miss you even less than before.

I think about when we still cared,
the fun we had,
the love we shared,
and I miss you, yeah I miss you.

Don't want to talk,
but soon you'll know just how I feel.

Tables turn on you now,
these things workout somehow,
tables turn on you.

Morning, 
Clambers, enshrouds, 
Scatters, 
Turns you to clouds.

And so my cold hands
Thank the skies you signed, 
Aren't judged by every word
That I could not find, 
Are coming home. 

Coming home.

I Am All - track 1 from the album Closing Ceremony (2020)

I Am All - Lyrics

Further in, not further on
Waters rise, the ground is gone
Where were you when we were one?
I am what the water’s done

North of here is constant ache
Songs to old gods, fire as praise
Ashes gone now, leave no trace
I am where the fire stays

Sweeter now, the air outside
Earth in glory, nature’s pride
Tread lightly here for beauty lies
I am what the flowers hide

First of my line to give in
Learn to love my own within
Good and bad: my kith and kin
I am all and all is sin

A Raven
