one year later and this music is still standing firm within the realm of awesome. This still makes me feel a special way.

Matt Byron I always appreciate the origins, very nice. if you only knew the path I've walked and what these lyrics mean to me.

The power of massed voices is used to great effect here

More like this. please man, this pink floydish / modest mouse / amazingness iz dope as fuck

haven't listened to this in a while. wow. sending love from the states.

Are We Having A Party Or Something?

A song about how the protagonist gets away from mundane life by driving but rushes along, hyperventilating & racing. He enjoys the day but loves to see the sunset, so he ends up chasing one.

Driving is a feeling that is felt by different people through different means. Some hate it, for some it's a source of living & for some it's a means of getting away. The song takes through the fast and rushed journey of modern driving & shows how to clam down.

Driving

All Good, thanks

Common music industry questions asked to JTSunrise with responses:

Question: How do you feel about authenticity in music?
Response (JTSunrise): “It’s the core of music. i believe in connecting with listeners through genuine experiences and emotions. Whether it’s a folk ballad or an acoustic punk tune, it has to come from the heart”

Question: What’s your stance on tradition versus innovation?
Response (JTSunrise): “i respect and study musical heritage, i’m also open to experimentation. My Gen X Folkspunk and Seattle Americana pays homage to the past while adding my twisted twist”

Question: How do you handle community engagement?
Response (JTSunrise): “Community matters. As a licensed busker, i connect with people on the streets. Music isn’t about stages; it’s about moments”

Question: What’s your approach to affordability for fans?
Response (JTSunrise): “i keep my rates reasonable. Music should be accessible. A live show of real deal acoustic tunes shouldn’t break anyone’s bank” I mostly give it away 

Question: How do you adapt to different events and audiences?
Response (JTSunrise): “Adaptability is key. Whether it’s a venue, culture event, or campfire gathering, or wedding or life celebration, i adjust the mojo to the vibe”

Question: What inspires your songwriting?
Response (JTSunrise): “Life—highs, lows, mostly inbetween. My songs reflect personal journeys and shared experiences”

Question: How do you balance craftsmanship and spontaneity?
Response (JTSunrise): “Craftsmanship matters. i handpick my instruments with bare fingers and pour my soul into each note. Magic happens in mistakes so i plan to have them and work them in”

Question How do you deal with annoying music interviews if the interviewer is a jackass?
Response (JTSunrise): “Simple, tell the truth:
1. What is your creative process like when writing and recording music?
    * JTSunrise’s Response: “A cosmic dance of creation! When i write, i sit under moonlit trees, strum my guitar to owls, let stardust melodies flow. Recording? Well, i channel wave energy into my microphone. It’s all about capturing radiation.”
2. How do you stay inspired and motivated to create music?
    * JTSunrise’s Response: “Meteor showers, the way leaves rustle, owls. Motivation comes from the background hum of the universe. i listen to it with a cup of chai”
3. Describe a time when you had to collaborate with other musicians on a project.
    * JTSunrise’s Response: “Had a jam session on Saturn’s rings. We traded riffs like shooting stars. Collaboration? It’s like harmonizing with comets—unexpected mysteries and white celestial light majik magic”
4. Do you have experience performing live? If so, what techniques do you use to engage the audience?
    * JTSunrise’s Response: “Whisper banjo secrets to the crowd. Make eye contact with Orion and recite genuinely thoughtful and meaningful empathetic banter. Works every time”
Cosmic Challenges (Hard Questions):
1. How do you handle criticism from fans or critics?
    * JTSunrise’s Response: “Listen, nod. Critics are constellations of opinions”
2. What strategies do you use to promote yourself as an artist?
    * JTSunrise’s Response: “i make friends with black holes—they’re influencers”
3. How do you balance artistic expression with commercial appeal when creating music?
    * JTSunrise’s Response: “i look to the North Star. But supernovae need to pay rent. So, i sprinkle stardust in my lyrics”
Cosmic Wisdom (Best Responses):
1. What sets you apart from other musicians?
    * JTSunrise’s Response: “i’m a comet that makes songs in Morse code. Also, my banjo has a PhD in intergalactic harmonics”
2. How do you ensure that your performances sound consistent across different venues?
    * JTSunrise’s Response: “i don’t”
3. What would you do if asked to perform an unfamiliar song?
    * JTSunrise’s Response: “close my eyes, let the Milky Way guide my fingers, deliver a cosmic ballad”

And one day, said the voice, it will all be forgotten

Cast of Characters:
The Mysterious Decibel-- @themysteriousdecibel –MD-- vocals and lyrics in the choruses
TexMex Shaman–@texmex-shaman –Stephen– guitar, production, and mix
J.J. Terrell–@j-j-terrell –piano 
K2 and the Three [and the Four]--@k2andthe3, @k2-kara -–Ken–drums and vocalized tones at the end, verse lyrics and melody, composition
Entheogenic Psychonaught (Josh Clary)–@josh-clary-1 –-four string fretless bass, vocals on the verses

This is a song that originated with Ken several months ago. He wrote the whole thing on piano, guitar, and drums and presented it to the rest of the band. Of course, everyone was very excited to add their spin to it. Josh added his bass part first, as the foundation. Then JJ added his dynamic piano part, which ended up being both foundational and stylistic. Stephen added his solid foundational guitar to it, too, soon after. Then it sat, stalled out for need of some vocals. Of course, we asked TMD to add some, which he did in grand fashion. All that was left were the verses. Ken wrote lyrics, and gave Josh an idea for the melody, so he sang the verses to wrap it up. Of course, we asked Stephen to produce and mix it for us, which he did so well, as always.

  We hope you enjoy listening to this song as much as we enjoyed making it.

Sad to say my trips to 'The Headstone' on Sheffield's Hallam Moor have been curtailed by my arthritic knees. But...I can see my old friend from afar and hope to commune with it one day.

since i felt  alright
but theres a sign in the stars
of good times to come

wont change your luck

if you still hear me...
i want out

and imma keep this one

Tuning from Bass DGDGBD

I captian banks & casinos
I deal in war stocks and bonds
Investments in Life and Death
Shares in the great beyond

Hold this golden thread
I will lower you down in the hole
When I call your name
You can hand me your soul

Im going with you babe
Im going with you babe
Im going with you babe
To where I just dont know

I trade in greed and murder
What are you putting down
I’ll take your earthly posessions
Then I will raise your town

I’m embedded in blood
With the KKK
I head the beuro of truth
For the NRA

Im as high, high , high
As you are low, low, low

I pulled the trigger @ Little Big Horn
That sat Sitting Bull down
I was the chair of Colonial power 
Until we disappeared underground

I dabble in sugar,…. plastic and coal
Sticks and stones,…. sex and gold
I can get you high and crush you low
Your gona love, love me true, cause Im all you know

Im going with you babe
Im going with you babe
Im going with you babe
To where I just don't know

I’m bringing back slavery
To service coperate need
I’ll downsize you to the bone
Till you got nothing left to bleed    

 Trumpet!

*Twilight Holidays*

I hear night-owls, wolf howls and barks scatter
Just a couple trees that lit up between dark matter
A bottle Henny and a story by the campfire
That little lamb's blood save it from the vampires

There's excitement in this new enticement
And temptations have you tip-toing 'round what's wrong and righteous
Virgin Mary ran off due to a past indictment
And bad desires, and bad advice by bad girl MIA

She went stray off the path and now she lack enlightenment
But there is ways to get higher and you can bet she'll find 'em
She saw the weed, she saw the shrooms, voices told her to try 'em
And now there ain't no way to get to her, she took off flyin'

She saw the make-belief, she saw the story biased 
So she bid defiance towards her confinement
What if Mary and Lucy had an alliance
And heaven and hell had an alignment..

 Yeah, find yourself something to do
 Find a way to alter you
 Pop in the cap of a 'shroom and chew
 Yeah find yourself something to do
 Waste away all of those moods
 Expand, love and alter your view

She went stray off the path and now she lack enlightenment
But there is ways to get higher and you can bet she'll find 'em
She saw the weed, she saw the shrooms, voices told her to try 'em
And now there ain't no way to get to her, she took off flyin'

She saw the make-belief, she saw the story biased 
So she bid defiance towards her confinement
What if Mary and Lucy had an alliance
And heaven and hell had an alignment..

 Yeah, find yourself something to do
 Let this smoke fill up your room
 Holiday (molly-day) out on the moon, with 'shrooms
 Yeah, find yourself something to do
 Waste away, smoke, drink or chew
 Expand, love and pass on the mood

My new album Gravity is available now on all online platforms and bandcamp. 
Living on a Greek island isn't always paradise, sometimes I miss The Punters, Tote and Esplanade.
