Indie/Indie-Folk Compilation - Summer 2021 ☀️ (alexrainbirdMusic)

April 30th, 2021 - Eugene, OR - On his 36th birthday and five months after the release of his debut album Brave the Storm, Oregon based producer and songwriter Tyler Fortier releases new single “Still Be Here” with accompanying lyric video. Featuring Lex Price (Neko Case, Peter Bradley Adams, Rodney Crowell) on bass, tenor guitar, and bouzouki, Philippe Bronchtein (The War & Treaty, Esme Patterson) on pedal steel, Peter Perdichizzi (The Flys, Beth Wood) on electric guitar, Jeramy Burchett (Nate Bosford) on drums, and Erin Flood Fortier singing harmonies. As with Brave the Storm, “Still Be Here” is released under the moniker Last Year’s Man with Fortier taking on the role of writer, producer, and mix engineer while also contributing acoustic guitar, ukulele, piano, and vocals to the track. Fortier wrote “Still Be Here” along with a handful of singles that will be released throughout 2021 and represented for sync by Complete Tracks, a boutique sync agency based in Vancouver, WA. 
“They initially reached out about representing the new album. We got to talking and I ended up writing some songs for them. I was trying to walk that line between burdened and hopeful. I think we’re all eager for life to get back to what it was in some way or another and this is a love song built out of the idea that it will.”

Produced & mixed by Tyler Fortier @ Little Orange Room in Eugene, OR
Mastered by Thaddeus Moore @ Liquid Mastering in Eugene, OR

Still Be Here

Haunted House

You make me laugh a little louder
Until my sides are sore
You make me smile a little wider
And know what life is for

Only a friend like you
Only a friend like you
Can make my life a little better
Walk a little taller
In everything we do
Only a friend like you
Only a friend like you

You make me see a little clearer
You help me to be brave
And when the noise is getting louder
You help me get away
 
Only a friend like you
Only a friend like you
Can make my life a little better
Walk a little taller
In everything we do
Only a friend like you
Only a friend like you

No one knows how to cheer me up like you
After everything that we have both been through
You know that I always want to be like you

The days should be a little longer
There’s still so much to do

Only a friend like you
Only a friend like you
Can make my life a little better
Walk a little taller
In everything we do
Only a friend like you
Only a friend like you
Can make my life a little better
Walk a little taller
In everything we do
Only a friend like you
Only a friend like you

Only a friend like you

To Be Determined

Only A Friend Like You

the sky looked nice today

the sky looked nice today
no the wind didn't feel too cold
and for the first time in a long time
this battered body felt like home
I saw trees that the giants couldn't take
felt the seeds growing through my bones oh my
for the first time in a long time
this battered body felt like mine

so do you wanna go to the end of the world with me
to see the way the birds fall when they know that it may just be
the last time in a long time they'll ever get to feel the air

oh I stood up tall today
and sang to the ghosts let them float on by
cause for the first time in a long time
this battered body felt alive

so do you wanna go to the end of the world with me
to see the way the birds fall when they know that it may just be
the last time in a long time they'll ever get to feel the air

and do you ever wonder what the sun does when we're fast asleep
I think she's got a plan for us I guess we'll have to wait and see
I know these times are lonely but we're only getting older you see

and the sky looks nice today
no the wind doesn't feel too cold
and for the first time in a long time
I think I know where I belong

so do you wanna go to the end of the world with me
to see the way the birds fall when they know that it may just be
the last time in a long time they'll ever get to feel the air
bet the sky looks nice from there

corook - i'm not doing well
Stream/Download: https://corook.lnk.to/imnotdoingwellSO

Lyrics:
You’re on the phone 
with your mom
You look happy

I’ll sit on the couch
With the dog 
While she’s napping

I’ll wait my turn
But I have 
To say something
Before I lose my nerve

Haven’t been sleeping 
Haven’t been eating
Or I’m just eating too much
Haven’t been cleaning 
Haven’t been feeling
I think I should tell you

I’m not doing well
It’s hard to say it honestly 
Don’t know how to ask for help
When I don’t know what’s wrong with me
I hope that saying it out loud 
Makes a little less scary 
I’m not doing well
I’m not doing well
I’m not doing well

You hold my hand
And I struggle
To let you

You say you’ve 
known for a while
But it’s nice to hear me say it

You’re holding space
And I don’t 
Wanna take it
I’m trying to learn how

Reasons Not To Die

Reasons Not To Die (Demo)

Watch: johnrobert.lnk.to/watchadeline

Lyrics: 
Oh Adeline take me home
Walk me through the barren streets I used to roam
Say you never saw us growing old
Oh, but we can still live young

Lord only knows when I saw you last
Haven’t spoken much since your mother passed
And you were never one for doing what you were told
Oh, how the good die young

And if you’re cold
then don’t leave lonely
I’ll walk you home
No you don’t have to love me

Oh Adeline

So Adeline how’ve you been
Do you still dream to be an actress?
And tell me was the west coast all it’s worth?
She said no, cause life don’t play out like the movies, no

So if you’re cold
Then don’t leave lonely
I’ll walk you home
No you don’t have to love me

Oh Adeline

Oh Adeline off you go
You were always raised to be a rolling stone
Right before you left wish I’d let you know
That I have always adored you
That I will always adore you
Through all the people, and places, and lifetimes we pass through
It will always come back to you

Adeline
