Dave Hawley – Burrito (little donkey)
(Spotify)

“How sometimes I want to leave the city and be in the vastness of endless prairies, whose fields are flooded with the rays of the sun. In your hands a favorite musical instrument, notes of Blues play in your soul, behind a small backpack, aluminum flask with cool water and the whole world at your feet. (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)”

“Как иногда хочется уехать из города и оказаться на просторах бесконечных прерии, чьи поля залиты лучами солнца. В ваших руках любимый музыкальный инструмент, в душе играют нотки Blues, за спиной небольшой рюкзак, алюминиевая фляга с прохладной водой и весь мир у ваших ног.”

Artist said about this song:

"In 2021 my good mate Batchy was given a terminal cancer diagnosis.

Instead of letting it get him down he decided to throw a 3 day party and flew 40 of his best friends from all over the country to a beautiful resort in Port Douglas. He called it ‘Batchys wake’. We partied, we drank, we ate seafood, we reminisced and we laughed.

Before he died, Batchy asked me to write a song about the weekend. Here it is.

Upbeat, positive and Catchy."

Lauren Balthrop – Piece of Shit

Lauren Balthrop – Piece of Shit
(Video)

“In this new single “Lauren Balthrop” puts in order some of her basic thoughts through a procedure of self evaluation. In many aspects of life we try hard to prove our value but -in fact- there’s no reason for all this effort. Music with attitude and lyrics of deep meaning.”

-Nagamag.com

Nashville-based folk-pop singer-songwriter Lauren Balthrop announced this morning the August 12 release of her sophomore album, Things Will Be Different via Olivia Records – [album presave]. With the news, she shares the first single, “Piece of Shit” with an accompanying animated lyric video

“Piece of Shit” was written at the beginning of the pandemic when Balthrop felt detached and uninspired. “It’s a very vulnerable song about low self-esteem,” she shared. “It’s about feeling like you have to prove your worth to everyone and at the same time knowing that that’s bullshit and it’s all in your head. The snarky first line, ‘why do I feel like a piece of shit all the time,’ encompasses the duel between self-rejection and self-acceptance.

A folk-pop singer-songwriter in the lineage of Carly Simon, Joni Mitchell, and Carole King, Lauren Balthrop makes captivating, candid music propelled by her crystalline voice and has been acclaimed by Stereogum, Paste, Under The Radar, No Depression, and more. A continuation of the title of her debut solo album, THIS TIME AROUND, Things Will Be Different is a dynamic folk-pop collection of 11 songs that examines nostalgia in all its brutal and benignly beautiful forms. Featuring open tuning, haunting string arrangements, and delicate vocal melodies, the songs reflect the depths of love lost, revealing Balthrop’s growth as an artist along the way: “This is the first record that feels entirely, fully my own. It’s about anxiety and heartbreak, and the millions of little moments that make up both. It’s about being stuck in the present but fixated on the past… and moving through to the other side.”
