This is a chill and vibey track only using the Spitfire Audio LABS Plugin. It is very much a Spring time song with is sounding so hopeful and happy. The sun is shining more, plants are growing, and it feels like the city is waking up.

Things Are Looking Up

Who I Am

Did you know I’m scared of my guitar
No one ever told me it would be this hard
To sing the words that I write down
And face the folks in my small town
Start this road the runs for years
Fight the failure, fight the fear
Try to fill an empty bar
If what you do, is who you are

Who I am is black and blue
Who I am will push on through
Who I am…  
Is what I’m scared to do

Well did you know I’m scared to fall in love
No one ever told me it would be this tough
To give it up to just one man
And trust that I would get love back
Settle in and take walls down
Wear my momma’s wedding gown
Well once it almost got that far
If what you do is who you are

Who I am is black and blue
Who I am will push on through
Who I am…  
Who I am is black and blue
Who I am is just like you
Who I am…  
Is what I’m scared to do

Did you know I’m scared of my mother
No one ever told me I would be just like her
I’d sacrifice all my plans
To hold the world in just one hand
See my light through my children's eyes
let them grow and watch them fly
Give my love with all my heart
Well what you do is who you are

And who I am is black and blue
Who I am will push on through
Who I am…
Who I am is black and blue
Who I am is just like you
Who I am...
Is what I’m scared to do
Who I am
Who I am
Who I am
That’s who I am

Who I Am

On episode 29, I am joined by Jacob Tsafatinos of the band Good Kid - who’s latest EP - Good Kid 2 came out on November 6, 2020. This band is one of my favourite musical discoveries of 2020, with a sound reminiscent of The Strokes and Tokyo Police Club, with a little Fallout Boy or Panic at the Disco in vocals for good measure. 

What I love about the band is the visual and creative identity they have developed for themselves based on their passions and interests that lie outside of the music world, from video games to anime. We talk about the character the band has created called “Nomu” who is embedded in all of their album art - like Eddie from Iron Maiden - generating what they call “fan art friday”. We get into the creation of the band's very own 8-bit side scrolling video game called Good Kid - Ghost King's Revenge, and it's accompanying 8-bit soundtrack of their music - that they created themselves. We also talk about how they got their song “Witches” added to Fortnite radio on the ever popular video game - Fortnite.

If you have music you would like us to hear, or have a great release day rollout plan you want the world to know about, send an email with your EPK and release plan to: contactreleaseday@gmail.com

Thank you so much for listening, and Welcome to Release Day!
