Us – Songs for Us
Us – Songs For Us
uswa.bandcamp.com
I wrote these songs in 2010 for a performance piece that I was a part of in my first class at The Evergreen State College. For an entire school year our group of 70 something students examined consciousness, myth, neuroscience, quantum mechanics, dream science and psychology, Asian wisdom traditions, and much more.
Now I have revived those compositions, originally performed live with a loop station, in properly recorded form with new spoken word provided by a good friend of mine who I originally met in that class, Noble Russell. His poetry throughout the EP is a singular narrative. His words are an artistic rendering of our studies at that time.
