Midnight Summer

Featuring Emmalee Penagos (EMMALEE) and Armando Penagos (of MEADOWS).

In the kingdom at hand, and yet to come.

Lyrics:

Waning afternoon
Wasting slow
Casts shadows
Tired

Earthly weights run wild
Much at stake
Bills to pay
Grip gets loose

But I’m thinking eternal
With feet on the ground
Pressed in the middle
Still Your kingdom comes down

I know a beautiful secret
All that’s seen
A brief daydream
Of what is coming soon

And I’m thinking eternal
With feet on the ground
Pressed in the middle
Still Your kingdom comes down

In between
Dark and day
You’re not still
You’re moving and awake
Reviving hope
Creating change
Turning loss
To a brand new page

So I’m thinking eternal
With feet on the ground
Nothing’s for certain
Except your will
Pressed in the middle
But held in Your palm
Til Your kingdom comes down

“Afraid Not, Emilee” is a lofi pop song, chronicling a captivating breakup scenario through evocative lyricism and a surreal sonic atmosphere. Influenced by the Shins, Vampire Weekend, and the Beatles, the song is a taste of the album, “The Common Thread,” which arrived Dec 27, 2024.

Afraid Not, Emilee

life and love are complicated. expectations about who we should be and how life should go abound, and sometimes they help propel us into the next stage. other times, they can put a timeline on us that ends up making us feel disappointed and discouraged.

I wrote a song about a love unfolding at its own pace, a life that treds its own path. it’s called “DESIRE PATHS,” which is a reference to walking paths created by people walking off the paved road. you may have seen them and even walked on them. if we’re being honest, I think we all have at some point.

this song is very special to me, and I hope you enjoy it! the sprawling love song DESIRE PATHS” is out FEBRUARY 14!

Desire Paths

“Driving Man” is a cinematic, narrative-driven song, chronicling a relationship from the perspective of the "driving man." It's lyrically rich, melodically conversational, and it's influenced by Big Star's "Thirteen." It arrives March 21, 2025.
