Presave the Inner Sunset EP, out January 12th:
venice.lnk.to/inner-sunset-ep
'Inner Sunset' was the first song I recorded after moving to San Francisco: I left all the windows open in our little apartment, and recorded the guitar and vocals in one track.
You can hear the sound of the bus and evening rush hour traffic on 101. Inner Sunset is a neighborhood in San Francisco, and though it’s not where we lived, every time I watched the sun go down the name came to mind.
A lot of places in the city have names that can seem quite poetic when you hear them first, evoking an imaginary setting before you eventually attach them to a concrete place of street signs and bus lines. “Inner Sunset” also felt like a good name for the feeling of needing to move on in life, to end one chapter and start another.

Inner Sunset
I'd like to sing the song that the night sings
But sunset in the city is a sad thing
I guess this is what happens when I try and sing
When I'm pining for you
I'd like to take you out and buy you ice cream
But somehow when I sing it seems a sad thing
I guess this is what happens when I try and sing
About the nice things we do
Come with me
A million miles away
We'll be different every day
And if we start to crack baby we'll go home
The sister of the south they say she’s pretty
But the fog means i’ll never leave the city
I guess this is what happens when I try to be
Who i might be for you
I'd like to sing the song that the night sings
But sunset in the city is a mad thing
I guess this is what happens when I try and sing
When I'm pining for you
Come with me
A million miles away
We'll be different every day
And if we start to crack baby we'll go home
Come with me
A million miles away
We'll be different every day
And if we start to crack baby we'll go home
