For this month’s song we did a lovely little lullaby.  And since its past my bedtime “Late Night Lullaby” seemed like a a fitting title.  Enjoy!

PS We added a neat little Facebook “like” button.  So if you like the tune then let Mark Zuckerberg know!

For our fourth song of the month we covered “You Found Me” by the Fray.  Its another one take wonder by Patrick and he put down a great vocal.  I found this little blurb that supposedly is from the Fray’s blog that explains the meaning of “You Found Me” but couldn’t find it on the Fray’s site so take it with a grain of salt.

“You Found Me is a tough song for me. Its about the disappointment, the heart ache, the let down that comes with life. Sometimes you’re let down, sometimes you’re the one who lets someone else down. It gets hard to know who you can trust, who you can count on. This song came out of a tough time, and I’m still right in the thick of it. There’s some difficult circumstances my family and friends have been going through over the past year or so and can be overwhelming. It wears on me. It demands so much of my faith to keep believing, keep hoping in the unseen. Sometimes the tunnel has a light at the end, but usually they just look black as night. This song is about that feeling, and the hope that I still have, buried deep in my chest.”

“You Found Me”
originally by Isaac Slade,  Joseph King, the Fray

I found God
On the corner of first and Amistad
Where the west was all but won
All alone, smoking his last cigarette
I Said where you been, he said ask anything
Where were you?
When everything was falling apart
All my days were spent by the telephone
It never rang
And all I needed was a call
That never came
To the corner of first and Amistad

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

In the end everyone ends up alone
Losing her, the only one who’s ever known
Who I am, who I’m not, who I want to be
No way to know how long she will be next to me

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

Early morning, City breaks
I’ve been calling for years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
You never send me no letters
You got some kind of nerve, taking all I want

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Where were you where were you

Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lying on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why’d you have to wait?
Where were you, where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me

Why’d you have to wait?
To find me, to find me

Hellllo February.  I don’t know about you all but I’m ready to be done with winter.  One of my favorite things about Kansas is that we get all four seasons.  But winter this year has been brutal!  Like a lot of our songs this one is a little bit depressing and a little bit hopeful.  Its how we roll…

“Daybreak” has nice mix of electronic, effected, and natural sounds.  Makes kind of a neat soundscape.

Did you miss Daybreak when we released it in February?  No worries… you can buy it here.

“Daybreak”

lyrics by Tim Seley

I know its cloudy
the sky keeps on shouting
its over
but tomorrow’s a new day
and then the sky will say

And… we’re back.  It was a nice break, but we’ve been itching to make some music.  If you forgot or if this is your first time here we’ll be writing, recording, and releasing a new song every month for 2010.  We’ll make the songs available the first Monday of every month.  After the first month the songs will be available for sale, and at the end of the year we’ll compile them all into an album.  If you like what you’re hearing then make sure and check out our store or itunes or amazon as we’ve got some fun songs from our song a week project.  So enough yakking…

Did you miss “Fell For You” when we released it in January?  No worries… you can buy it here.

This month’s song is called “Fell for You”.  Some of the instrumentation used: acoustic guitar, canvas sack, napkin, spray bottle, coins… you get the idea.  Hope you like it and we’re really excited to see what comes out of us in 2010.  Happy New Music Monday!“Fell For You”

lyrics by Tim Seley

I wouldn’t say that I need you, but I do
I shouldn’t say that I’ve fallen, but I fell for you

I didn’t say what I wanted, but did you?
I couldn’t say what I was feeling, but you knew
The words are hard to come by, but if you
would stay

And the things that I don’t say
Are what’s keeping you away, from me
And the things that stay unspoken
Are the things that make us broken

Are there things that you won’t say to me
Unspoken words
Unspoken things
Are they the same things that I won’t say to you
Unspoken hurts
Unspoken need

I need you
Do you need me?
Do you feel the same as I do
I can’t imagine life without you
