Solar Twin

"Omnichord pop and vocoder vocals that open the door briefly for slide riffs or jangling guitars, like indie gone off electric rails" - American Standard Time

“I’m Not Mad Anymore” had its live debut last Saturday in Seattle. One of my personal favorites from 2021’s Televangelist album, it’s one that has really been resonating with me this week. And the band crushed it 🔥

To me, this is the saddest song #BrianWilson ever wrote. I've been processing the loss of Brian by digging into covers I’ve done for my own enjoyment over the years. This is another from my Solar Twin era.

In light of #BrianWilson's passing, I wanted to share this demo I made while making my @SolarTwinMusic LP (2017). An experiment to see if I could boil this complex masterpiece down to 4 chords & a groove. Big love to Brian for the endless inspiration. https://t.co/90IRpQ8SpI

Physical copies begin pre-orders on May 3rd.

Excited to share the title of my new album “Daylight Upon Magic.” It’s from Walter Bagehot’s quote “Its mystery is its life. We must not let in daylight upon magic.” Bring on the magic! Pre-order 5/3 🌒
