Impressions from the Celestial Couch

What if the stars
And cars
The oceans and hills
The moon
And houses
Were all just 
beautiful dust
What if all these things 
Had just
Grown too huge for us
Now impositions
Making all the rules
Where once it was said
By you 
By me 
By us
What if the stars and cars
The oceans and hills
The moon and houses
were all just 
Beautiful dust
I love to gaze up high
I love to drive real fast
I love to dive deep in 
And climb up hillsides
I need shelter from storms
And from the night
And i love to watch the moon
Mocking in her flights
What if all these things 
Were only beautiful dust.

Beautiful Dust

Dedicating my piano part in this song to my Dad who lives in Tennessee in The Smoky Mountains. Hell, I guess I'll dedicate my part to his best friend Ronnie too. 
I only play a small part in this song which is the piano, but I will tell you that the folks I'm playing with are really great people and a lot of fun jamming with. 

Cast of Characters:

mistermark-- @user-432503709 -- Lead and harmony vocals, synth guitar intro, auxiliary percussion, mix, arrangement, and production
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– guitar, banjo, and mastering
Llanpsych -- @llanpsych -- Tez – mix and production
J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell –piano 
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums and vocal harmonies
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-four string fretless bass, mandolin, and lap steel
This song began when Josh asked the rest of the guys if they'd be willing to put together a couple of songs for his father as a Christmas present. His dad is from West Virginia, and Josh was born there, too. The original version featured Josh's son, Marshall, singing the lead with him, and hearing his grandson sing a song about West Virginia really meant a lot to elder Clary. Of course, everyone was enthusiastically generous in giving their time, effort, and skill to Josh's family for the holiday. This song also has special meaning for JJ and Ken in relation to their fathers, as well. JJ's dad has had a rough year with his health. He also is a musician who inspired and encouraged JJ to play music. His dad also likes this song, so it was fun for him to present it to him, as well. Ken, who's father never really supported his decision to be a rock-and-roller, loves this version of the song we did, and made Ken know how proud of him he is in regard to it, which really meant a lot to Ken, too. Another cool connection Ken has to this song is that whilest attending elementary school, he was in the same school choral cohort with the Maria Carey. He actually sang this song with her when they were kids. Also, we feel like we should acknowledge Artur's dog, even though Artur isn't in on this one, his dog loves country music and responded enthusiastically to this one.
  The story of the song itself is a little convoluted. After Josh asked for everyone's help, Ken laid down a rudimentary beat, to which Josh started the tonal part with the bass. Stephen added the guitar and banjo soon after, and Josh added the mandolin shortly after that. JJ inserted his piano around this time, too. We pretty much had it working enough for Josh and his son to sing it for his dad. Tez mixed that version perfectly suited to the occasion. 
  After presenting Josh's dad with the present, it sat for about a month, until we asked Mark if he'd get in on it, too. Mark not only sang it better the JD, but also arranged it so there is an instrumental break now. He also added the guitar lick at the very beginning. Ken took the opportunity of having Mark's great vocals to sing against to add his cunning harmonies. Then Mark, being the perfectionist that he is, noticed that the slide part was missing from the second verse. So, Josh added it. Mark also mixed this version, with Stephen doing some mastering at the end. 
  We hope you enjoy listening to this as much as we enjoyed putting this personally meaningful piece together.

Wine is TRUTH

after 3 AM I hear your voice
tortured as I remember 
recognize your pain
glowing flames of fiery ember
haunting memory of wanting
you despite the cost
tip the golden chalice
till all inhibitions lost
leave nothing but skin
over your bones while
whispering in softest
under tone

always loved you baby
I hang on every word
 amplified and allowed
every distant darkened cloud
in your mind of paranoia
blue and defined
See myself inside 
your harsh lines
if I hadn't fucked it up
could I have made you mine
if I hadn't fucked it up
could I have made you 
mine

doesn't seem like I can
hold a man
set myself up to be damned
by those who should
cherish me the most
yet treat me like I'm toast
attract me just to boast
they took me down
and watched me fall into
a wretched fog of wasted time
scold myself for acting in a haste
when the truth is
I was just afraid
 you'd take me out as well
you'd take me down, as well

couldn't get the words out
couldn't bare to trust
anyone new again...
yet here I  am weeks
 on down the line
syncing with your mind
like you'd give me time 
of day if I reached 
out to you again

yes, you....yes you....


Wine Is TRUTH

Lyrics 

You’re so sure that they’re thinking about you
When none of them really give it a thought or two
Most people got the lowest IQ 
Most people yeah I could name a few 

Stop giving them your power
Stop giving those strangers your peace
Who cares what they think or say
They don’t feel for you no kinda way

Walk on by if they stop to stare
Make sure it’s not just all in your head
Another day on this planet of fear
Time to release yourself from all of those cares

Stop giving them your power 
Stop giving those strangers your peace 
Who cares what they think or say
They don’t feel for you no kinda way 

It’s all in your head…

It’s All In Your Head

dont write me off   Hugh Grant Cover

I Will Pretend

traversable

Je suis décivilisation 
Je suis l'ensauvagement
Je suis renarde dans votre Eden
Je suis la loi du ventre
Je suis ces invincibles amarantes
Je suis chasseresse de chasseurs
Je suis tétanisation
Je suis alors fulgurance rebelle
Je suis une murmuration féerique à l'heure dorée.
Je suis endêvée par votre passivité
Je suis l'improbable qui te guette
Je suis ainsi l'assise substantielle
Je suis mycorhizes 
Je suis ces sentiers prompts à vous faire saliver
Je suis la spirale de fuites
Je suis aussi incendie désiré
Je suis violette tel l'aconit 
Je suis sagesse car sans sang
Je suis l'évolution par tous ignorée
Je suis la badass à la hache et au cœur de glace
Je suis syntropie
Je suis notre sourire stellaire

Decivilization

The legacy of colourful and relatable American roots music lives on in the form of Seattle’s JAMES CARR BAND. The cornerstones of this group’s sonic bliss are their locked-in groove, their heart-touching emotive soul, and their funk-infused rhythm. This is a country rock experience reimagined for the current climate.
