Sing to the Mountain

When listening to the twelve original songs of Próxima Parada’s release, Big Seven, every person takes away something different. The twenty-two year old jewelry maker hearing the infectious positivity of ‘Tossin My Troubles’ was compelled to lay low in her most-loved place and soak it up, free of worry and anxiety. The father of two boys found himself involuntarily humming that opening melody in ‘Why Not It Be Me’ as he waited at the checkout stand. Some tracks, like ‘Better Now’ and ‘Resilience’ feel best late at night, but ‘One Cloud is Lonely’ pairs so well with a car traveling in the sunshine. One moment, Big Seven enraptures, gets feet moving and heads swaying, then it soothes and invites introspection, then a smile comes from catching the twist at the end of ‘Hannah Hannah’. Big Seven pushes further into Próxima Parada’s flavor of soul music. Sincere lyrics and powerful vocals weave in with intentional arrangements where every instrument is heard in the mix and every note serves a purpose. Here are twelve songs that offer something special in their groove, something straight from the soul.

Lyrics:

Float along, whats the issue
Show me a plan that's, stronger than tissue
Far too long, just to break through
Only the simple songs I commit to
Will I break, before I hear true
How many trees must go for a clear view
How many days until it convince me
There's other ways back home to the clear blue

Carry me, over shoals
River raft, full of holes
Swimming now, waters cold
On my back, no controls
Waterfall, feeling bold
Carry me, and my soul
Out to sea, the river flows
Another day, I'm living whole

Rapids wind, to an ending
I wouldn't say goodbye is impending
But I need the dial, for a bent wing
I've killed a thousand miles just pretending
I'm tuning out, all the first clues
How many years I doubted a burnt fuse
Scaring away my dreams gotta learn to
Close up the distance now while I can choose

Carry me, over shoals
River raft, full of holes
Swimming now, waters cold
On my back, no controls
Waterfall, feeling bold
Carry me, and my soul
Out to sea, the river flows
Another day, I'm living whole

Eat in Go Deaf (Eat out Go Broke)
