Hello earth. Today was a good day to put out a single. Some BirdsReturn. It’s a collaboration with author Courtney Jensen to
accompany his next book in his fantasy series. His first book, The
Crown and the Caged God is out now available on Amazon or Bonstanbooks.com. This song
takes place in a medieval type world, sung in a tavern after mourning
the loss of a desolated city. I promise it sounds much more cheerful
than that description. We tried to emulate what happens with oral
traditions overs generations, where words often get changed or
misinterpreted. So we passed the song around a few times between
each other without truly seeing the written original lyrics.
Courtney is a great writer and I promises the book is not your
average fantasy novel. So please check out all he is up to at
CourtneyJensen.com and his youtube channel.
I also wanted to
announce my next album, Extraterrestrial Wet Dream
which should be out before the year’s end. It’s a
funk/soul/disco/jazz album. I know... a total left turn from the
previous album. But this it the point of these albums. To try new
things. The inspiration started from late night jams with my punk
band’s (Born Shit Stirrers) founding member Paul Blair on bass
Special guests will be Mike Watt from the Minutemen, Firehose, and Iggy Pop. Trevor Brown on drums of People of the Abyss. Our first
album together with him on drums in16 years, since our time together
in the hip hop band Lost History. Also long time collaborator Jan
Bart Leeuw adding keys and samples and Melisa Delgado on viola.
I hope you enjoy
these releases. We all put a lot of work into them.
Love, Lum
