Declan O’Donovan – Get Thee Behind The Wheel
“To catch the mood of this composition is not so easy. The musical structure and arrangement like a web are intertwined in your mind, drawing and recreating bizarre sound images. The atmosphere of Folk music leads you, delaying in your unusual and such mysterious story.” (Automatically Translated with Google Translate)
“Уловить настроение этой композиции не так просто. Музыкальная структура и аранжировка словно паутина переплетаются в вашем сознании, рисуя и воссоздавая причудливые звуковые образы. Атмосфера Folk музыки ведёт вас за собой, затягивая в свою необычную и такую таинственную историю.”

“Get Thee Behind The Wheel” was written on a purple baby grand piano in a basement filled with spiders on Vancouver Island. The owner of the piano and the house where it lived was an unfettered conspiracy theorist (and hoarder) who would show up regularly and unannounced and inundate O’ Donovan with his theories of the world. O’Donovan has no doubt that the setting and mindset of this weird ass time and place informed the strange rhythms and melodies in the song.
