Moose Gronholm's Profile

A person’s interpretation of a song’s lyrics is, and can be, unique to them. Being that I’m not the one who wrote the song either I come from feel. Lyrically I dig this song. It seemingly comes from a place of some darkness, and I appreciate that.

Corduroy Brown is back with another single, “Medicine” from the upcoming EP Starter Pack.

The song is from their 2021 EP Nothing’ to Fear. I like to think of this song as a love letter. It just asks the questions “if you were to die what would you / I do?” All the while using death as a metaphor for the “stupid things I say” inside of a relationship.

Each line of the song is essentially asking that question; If I told you such and such, how would you feel?

Through all of Corduroy’s music there’s an underlying theme giving attention to mental health. This song and video sort of encapsulate that.

The vibrant music scene in Huntington, West Virginia bring us another band from thereabouts. Friendly Fire has released their first full length album titled Junebug.

What has always struck me about Matt are his lyrics. The poetry in their feeling, their simplicity and complexity, and his lyrics all draw me in like a deer in the headlights. Then everything gets put down and shut off and the listening commences.

Sixteen wheels and an open road, oh wait. Well maybe four wheels, the open road, and this album. No matter how many wheels you have on your vehicle Jake Dunn and the Blackbirds new record Sad Songs seems like it was made for the open road.

Delving into the lyrics I was finding depth to the lyricism. The songs go through waves of relationships and living life. Getting older, and being sometimes sarcastic, and honest.

Through his genre bending style he is going to try to carve out his niche with his music. Nocturne Bouquet is the name of the record. Ray Amor is the artist. You can give him a listen on platforms come Friday June 25^th.
