If It Be Your Will (Leonard Cohen Cover)

Through the haze

Drift into the fog with Three Photons as they unveil "Through the Haze"—a hypnotic blend of jazz-blues textures and analog mystique. This track doesn’t just play—it envelops.

Trying for a vintage jazz sonic.
Thank you for listening.


Through the haze

Tell me one more time
what’s on your mind
I hear the rain
These are stormy days

Late nights at the cold front
I see you
Through the haze

Wake up, Wake up
Somethings brewing
In your mind

Tell me one more time
What changed your mind
I feel your pain
These are lonely days

Late nights at the cold front
I see you
Through the haze

Late nights at the cold front
I see you
Through the haze

Wake up, Wake up
Somethings brewing
In your mind

Wake up, Wake up
Somethings brewing
In your mind

Wake up, Wake up, Wake up, Wake up
Tell me what’s on your mind.

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”

True stories

Lyrics:
Kelly, she took her Dad's sports car out for a ride
She hit a tree
That girl was just 17 years old when she died
My friend Carew
He always knew what to do
To keep his mind and body healthy
He never drank beer and never smoked pot
Out for a Sunday run
Hit by a Greyhound Bus
Ohh God keeps a messy house
God keeps a messy house

My friend Mike T
He swam out to the sea
Trying to rescue a drowning boy
Who fell down to the bottom of the ocean
I swear this story is true
That boy went on to kill his family
The Lord works in mysterious ways
Lord works in wondrous ways
God keeps a messy house
Works in wondrous
Mysterious ways
God keeps a messy house

God Keeps A Messy House

This is a re-mix of the original we did years ago . Jeff Roberts who created it from my basic acoustic idea wanted to remix and get it out on Spotify under the name of The Bird Thieves . 
Jeff was the first artist I ever collaborated with on Soundcloud and I will always be grateful to him for giving me the opportunity and believing in my raw ideas. 
Since then I’ve have worked with many great talented musicians from Soundcloud . The Conscience Of Kings project with Noobly simply transformed me and my love for being creative all over again. 
Thank you to everyone I have worked with and everyone I have engaged with on this platform.
Enjoy this tune all over again and a massive thanks to a Soundcloud legend that is Jeff Roberts.

Our Carpe Diem 


Candy to my eyes 
Sweet poison in my heart 
We were electric together 
But safer miles apart
In wild times we were living
And you always made me laugh
When you Dancing on the tables
And falling over in the dark

If your gonna judge us
You better be perfect 
And if you’ve got something say
It better be worth it
we lived for the moment x2
I’m our very own Carpe Diem 


Caught a train to London 
In hindsight shouldn’t of went
We stayed out 48 hours
And drank next months rent
Beautiful minds equal beautiful times
it was never gonna last
But what an absolute blast

Chorus with a times 4 

Outro

Ohhhh Darcey 
With lived for the moment x4
