LYRICS
I was waiting for you
Were you waiting for me?
When the winter came the rain was falling upside down
I'm still waiting for you

Keep your head inside a hole
Wrap it a tidy bow
Pray the rains will come and wash our sins away

One and one make two
One and one make two
One and one make two
One and one make two

One and one make two
Two and three make four
Try and understand that these are just
The Facts of Life

Never think of what was lost
Never say those things out loud
If you ever find that you are on
The losing end

One and one make two
One and one make two
One and one make two
One and one make two

Put your left foot out in front
Put your right foot out in front
Put your left foot out in front
Put your right foot out in front

The Facts of Life

Are We There

Loma began as a serendipitous collaboration between Emily Cross, the multi-talented musician and recording engineer Dan Duszynski, and Shearwater frontman Jonathan Meiburg. They’d capped a grueling tour with a standout performance on a packed beach at Sub Pop’s SPF 30 festival, in which Cross leapt into the crowd, and then into the sea, while the band carried on from the stage—an emotional peak that also felt like a natural ending. 
 
Following the tour, Cross went to rural Mexico to work on visual art and a solo record, while Meiburg began a new Shearwater effort. After a few months apart, the trio reconvened at Duszynski’s home in rural Texas, where they began to develop songs that would become Don’t Shy Away. Loma writes by consensus, and though Cross is always the singer, she, Duszynski and Meiburg often trade instruments.  Meiburg compares their process to using an ouija board and says the songs revealed themselves slowly. “In Loma, nobody wears the crown, so we have to trust each other—and we end up in places none of us would have gone on our own. I think we all wanted to experience that again.” The album that emerged is gently spectacular—a vivid work whose light touch belies its timely themes of solitude, impermanence, and finding light in deep darkness. 
 
A series of guests contributed to the absorbing soundscapes of Don’t Shy Away, including touring members Emily Lee (piano, violin) and Matt Schuessler (bass) and Flock of Dimes/Wye Oak’s Jenn Wasner.
