King Of Machines

GRACE GILLESPIE - HUH

I am a child
I do not know
Swing in the sunshine
Which way I don’t know

What is this life
from which we creep?
Into the darkness
Our love seeps

It’s so unlikely 
That you would find me
Outside the wind blows
No I will not go

HUH!

In your heart 
In your soul 
There’s a place 
You can go
Out of luck 
Out of line 
And I will still be swinging in the sunshine

What does your smile
mean to the world?
What can your lies 
do to this small girl?

I have a place 
You’ll never find
Hide in the confines of my own mind

It’s so unlikely 
That you cannot see
Outside the wind blows 
No I will not go

HUH!

In your heart 
In your soul 
In your mind 
Don’t you know
Out of luck 
Out of fear 
Well now you’ve done the damage you can disappear

In your heart 
In your soul 
Are you sure 
you are sold
on this life 
on this lie? 
You can watch it growing as the time goes by

Landkeepers in disused lines 
Are drinking California wine
And new machines 
Wait in the wings. 

Inventions dressed as relief
The valley has become a thief
And now the dream
Is behind a screen.

I woke early to dial into some sacred frequency.
I woke early to dial into some sacred frequency.
I woke early to dial into some sacred frequency.
Before diving into the drudgery
You know I had to go
Before diving into the drudgery
You know I had to go.

Hypnotised by my routine
Curate my security
I dreamed so long (I've been dreaming so long)
That the world was gone.  (Where has the world gone?)

I woke early to dial into some sacred frequency.
I woke early to dial into some sacred frequency.
Before diving into the drudgery
You know I had to go
Before diving into the drudgery
You know I had to go.

Before diving into the drudgery 
Just hold on to the sides
Just hold on to my mind 
Where everything resides
There was violence on both sides
There was chaos in my mind.

I Woke Early To Dial In To Some Sacred Frequency

I am a god, 
Of nothing I shape a little world
With a bite of each arm,
Subtle, nice and bold
It comes in many ways 
And i know by now
Beckon the ancient fires
This is my evening dress
I watch them glow
and I will stay
Your gnarly ghost
Happening at the same time:
Your shining guide,
Delight all the darling boys
With or without the old soul-and-so
You just can't bribe brightness

Sleepers should be dreamers, oh i know
It's so obvious it drives me crazy
Making up entire scenes
That used to taste so sweet to me
And if you want to catch those arrows on your bow
You should simply believe, and
Do & be & do do be do
Waahoooooooooo

I'm on a train of thought
I've got nothing but nought
I should have brought
My binoculars, oh 
See me boys, looking for something
I'm down in the dumplings,
Open the bin bag
Bragging and boasting, b&b
You're surely not just anybody
But what's in a name? 
You're not yourself,
You just can't bribe brightness

Sleepers should be dreamers, oh i know
It's so obvious it drives me crazy
Making up entire scenes
That used to taste so sweet to me
And if you want to catch those arrows on your bow
You should simply believe, and
Do & be & do do be do
Waahoooooooooo

Produced by Jason Shaw

He'd lay in other gardens, before he came to hers
And though the birds sung louder
she always seemed to make it worse

She told him life was hard so
You might as well not try
Each time he left the garden
A little piece within him died

And so he'd visit her
And later wonder why
If all that's growing there
are spiteful thorny plants that I despise

Gardens

When I’m gone, pretend I’ve gone to Spain
When I’m gone, pretend I’m in Majorca and feeling no pain
When I’m gone, pretend I’m learning secrets the rest of us have lost
And every memory we have, is etched in a star someplace

In evening clothes
A champagne bucket and an orchestra
Tides receding
Playing songs we’d both forgotten we adore
Painted ceiling 
Of the Constellations freeform
Where I’ve gone

When I’m gone, pretend it’s only temporary
When I’m gone, pretend I’m not with every cat we ever knew
When I’m gone, pretend I finally know how everything works now
And every memory we had, is etched in a star so blue

In the evening glow
A champagne bucket and an orchestra
Tides receding
Playing songs we’d both forgotten we adore
Painted ceiling 
Of the constellations freeform
Where I’ve gone
Where I’ve gone

Pretend I nap with every cat we ever knew

When I’m gone, pretend it’s only temporary
When I’m gone, pretend mean people all wised up enough
When I’m gone, remember no one tells a better joke
And every memory we had, is etched in a star so 

Champagne bucket and an orchestra
Playing songs we’d both forgotten we adore
Playing songs we’d both forgotten we adore
Where I’ve gone

Oh pretend I’m learning secrets the rest of us have lost
Oh pretend I’m learning secrets the rest of us have lost

The Constellations Freeform

I'll Never Survive

Title track from my new 2-track single "Nothing to Me" 
Available on Spotify and Apple Music

Nothing to Me

I won’t lie - I wanted to make this quickly. I didn’t want to spend weeks or months agonising over choices that I only I would ever know I’d made. I didn’t want to allow my ego to get in the way of what I had created. I wanted to make it and then respect what I had made.

And so, this is an album that was recorded in an afternoon in January (with the exception of one track which was recorded in May). It is imperfect. You can hear my chair creak; you can hear the world outside my window; you can hear my dog move in his bed; you can hear my daughter making dinner. 

It is what it is: a moment captured in zeros and ones via two microphones. Some of these tracks are several years old, some are new compositions, and some have only ever been played at the moment they were recorded for this album.

So often I stress and worry about each and every little thing but there are many moments when I play guitar that all that worry leaves me; I am in and of the moment. In contrast to when I sing a song, playing instrumental music allows me in some way to bypass the inner critic, the internal filter that anticipates and then checks an upcoming mistake or emotional lapse. 

Perhaps it is because the voice is so personal, such an expression of our physical self, that I cannot turn off this filter, there must exist a barrier between my thought and the sound. Playing instrumental music renders this barrier transparent, invisible, vanished.

And so here it is, Moment.

Moment is available from https://benmorganbrown.bandcamp.com/album/moment with a wider digital and streaming release coming in March.
