about

Walk Miles was released originally on Streetcar Curtsy 0001. At the time I felt it was the track with the most potential on the EP, but the recording was at best a rushed, poor rendering.

In July, working with Neal Sundet at Meech Creek Studios, a rhythm track that we used as a guide for recording bed tracks resulted in an impromptu picking arrangement that sounded fantastic.

With the fine ears of Stephen Rapos at Fiddlehead Sound Studios at the mixing and mastering helm, the end result is a track with layers of instrumentation that make it sound as it did in my head.

lyrics

Ain’t no clouds in the sky, if you don’t look up.
No such thing as a bad trip, just bad gear;
what you’ve been carrying on your back,
just lay it down here.
Just lay it down here.

This earth's got infinite possibility for footsteps,
infinite space to lay trail;
no direction necessary,
walk miles.
Just walk miles.

Destination after-thought,
give me everything in between.
Stops along the way, people you meet,
reason to breathe.
Give me reason to breathe

Noticing, noticing nothing.
Startled by the quiet in my head.
Tommy you had it all right,
cedar strip grave in red.
Give me cedar strip grave in red.

Walk miles.
Whatever you've been carrying on you back,
just lay it down here.
Walk Miles
