Album: Monoliths
Release Date: September 15, 2023

LYRICS:
Mirage

How could we have been 
So blind
Fighting over these 
Same-as-always
Drawn lines

Othering
We’ve convinced ourselves 
To separate

Always finding
A reason why we can’t relate

Haunted by the thought
Of a world that might’ve been
And the kind of hope
We could live to feel again
If we figure out
What the writing on the wall
Says

It’s our one chance

It’s not hopeless
This so-called mirage

There’s still time

Widetrack is the musical partnership of father-son duo of Ron and Zach Tippin. 

The band's "Alterna-Prog" sound has been described as "Twilight Zone creator Rod Serling conducts a group therapy session with members of Soundgarden, Pink Floyd and Rush".

Their formative discography consists of 2007's self-titled debut, 2009's Widetrack II, and Zach's 2018 debut with the band, Widetrack III.  All three albums were co-produced by Andy Patalan, guitarist for popular '90s grunge-rock band, Sponge. 

Beginning in January 2019, the father-son team wrote, recorded and released one new song each month, marking Zach's debut as a songwriter and recording engineer, as well as the first time Ron had written Widetrack music with another person. 

The twelve songs comprise Widetrack's fourth album, The Unwakening, released on April 23rd, 2020 (Zach's 16th birthday). 

Once the pandemic lockdown was lifted, they quickly began gaining considerable attention on the live music scene, inspiriting audiences with their electrifying energy and mood-enhancing vibe.

Presently, the duo is playing select shows in preparation for the release of their fifth album, Monoliths.

Mirage

Artist: Widetrack
Song: Serpents
Album: Monoliths
Release Date: September 15, 2023

LYRICS:
Serpents

Did you think your heart
Could resist the allures of
Serpent tongues whispering
Assurances that your cause was just?

Were you drawn
To their siren song?

Charms so beguiling

Search your mind
For distortions you’ve fed

A thousand sources
For each side
So pay no mind to theirs

Come and take your part
In this narrative
All you would believe
Is your evidence

The pain of your disquiet
Will last no more

How can one resist
Something so divine
Disbelief in what's not in doubt
Promises of a world
Where your will to fight
Gives you faith that you’ve won

No godless science
Can deny these opinions
You wield

Come now
Why make hard
What’s just how it is?
There’s no hiding from
Your place with the blessed

Don’t let them sway your thoughts
With their claims of what’s real
Logic and eloquence
Playing on your emotions

(LEAD BREAK)

You laugh
But some would not think twice
Decide
What power you will give them

Come and wake from your trance
Come and open your eyes
Come find your way homeward
Come find the way forward

Song: Pendulum
Album: Monoliths
Release Date: September 15, 2023

LYRICS:
Pendulum

The scales have fallen
From our eyes again
We'd gotten so close
But that was then

Lured into the web
Of our rhetoric
Collision sparked and
The fuse was lit 

No denying that
It mattered at the time
Caught up in the wish
To make it right

All eyes are focused
On this spectacle
Mirrored delusion
So volatile

Moths drawn to the flame
Burning with contempt
Self-immolation
By argument 

No denying this
Cold civil war we fight
Always so convinced
We’ll make it right

To revel in the blood
Nothing quite compares
Forever in the flux
Of "ours" and "theirs"

What’s left for Us?

Album: Monoliths
Release Date: September 15, 2023

LYRICS:
Virtue

Life is hard, girl
You won’t ascend 
Till you’ve done this

Your office 
This one night 
Decide and
Done

Who would stop my
Shrewd, absolved right
To this justice
For your climb

So turn around
And let your hair down
This honor of your rise
Is mine

Don’t speak of this 
It’s your disgrace 
Against my power

Move forward
And know that
You’re all in now

Who would stop my
Shrewd, absolved right
To this justice
For your climb

So turn around
And let your hair down
This honor of your rise
Is mine

I can’t slow down
I’ve worked too hard to lose so much
Your threats hanging over my head

One hard-lived night
And this all will be behind me
I’ll just think of it as
One final rung
Before I’ve earned my wings

Claw my way
Through the filth and slime
Turn my face
From this shadow 

(LEAD GUITAR)

(Who would stop my…)

No turning back

(Shrewd, absolved right,..)

Close your eyes and be still
(Who would stop my…)
(Just one hard-lived night…)

Think of all the good you’ll do
(Who would stop my…)
(Just one hard-lived night…)
(Hang on, hang on, you’ve got this…)

There’s no other way through
(Shrewd, absolved right…)
(Just one hard-lived night…)
(Hang on, hang on, you’ve got this…)

Trust that you will survive this 
(Who would stop my…)
(Just one hard-lived night…)
(Hang on, hang on, you’ve got this…)

You’ll find it will be worth it
(Shrewd, absolved right…)
(Just one hard-lived night…)
(Hang on, hang on, you’ve got this…)

This job means more than just sex

LYRICS:
Unlived

Something inside
Won’t be silenced
Fearing the loss of
Your life unlived

The road is long
Wanting just to run
Knowing something's out there 

The world is hard
Always wanting more 

Time now to rise
To this moment
Harness the force of 
Your truest wish

You'll light up
Hold that thought in your mind

And know there is hope still
Know there is hope still
Know there is hope

The road is long
Wanting just to run 
Knowing something's out there

The world is hard
Always wanting more
Don’t be robbed of your chance

Know there is hope 
Know there is hope 
Know there is hope 
Know there is hope 

Believe that something is out there
(Know there is hope) 
Believe that something is out there
(Know there is hope) 
Believe that something is out there
(Know there is hope) 
Believe that something is out there
(Know there is hope)

LYRICS:
Symptoms 

Cite the narrative
To justify another dead...

Amplify the myth
That we’re somehow safer...

Shift the blame for it...

-The cycle never ends-

And I know too well
The symptoms of your kind
As I run for my life

Can’t deny the wish
For vengeance to befall your ilk

Cauterize the wound
It’d all be so simple

But for evidence
That change is coming yet

And I know too well
The symptoms of your kind
As I vote for my life
And your time to end

Should we stay silent
Locked in what is
Let our non-violent
Be martyred to your cause

Just resign ourselves 
To your bloodstained laws
That celebrate freedom
If not for all involved

So zealous in your fight
To nullify our lives 
The killing toll you’ve wrought
A culture you’d cancel

And I know too well
That something’s not right
As I lift my voice
To silence their cries

And I know
Soon they’ll know
The symptoms of your kind

Come let us
Turn our minds from all this 
Conflict of these sides

It’s all right

Rise or fall
Depends on this moment 
The spark of our illumination

Are we not
More than our heritage?
How does this end well?

Only Us can save us

One last try
For us to solve this
The common thread
Followed to our bliss

It’s all right

Love or war
Reflect on which one is
The object of your desire

For all that we are 
Depends on this moment
The spark of our illumination 

One last try
For us to solve this
We hold in our hands
The common thread
Followed to our bliss
~Our higher selves~

It’s all right

Monoliths

Illumination

Widetrack is the musical partnership of Ron and Zach Tippin. 

The duo's "Alterna-Prog" sound strikes a balance between the moody-deep undertones of such progressive groups as Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Porcupine Tree, The Mars Volta, etc., with the heaviness of alternative and hard rock bands like Soundgarden, Queens Of The Stone Age, Tool, STP, etc. 

Between 2007 and 2016, Ron self-released the band's first three albums, 'Widetrack', 'Widetrack II', and 'Widetrack III', Zach's recording debut, as bassist. 

Beginning in January 2019, the father-son team wrote, recorded and released one new song each month, marking Zach's debut as a songwriter and recording engineer, as well as the first time Ron had written Widetrack music with another person. 

The twelve songs comprise Widetrack's fourth album, The Unwakening, released on April 23rd, 2020 (Zach's 16th birthday). 

The band is in the process of booking live dates and finishing their fifth album, 'Monoliths'.
