Liner Notes

My friends tell me the best stuff. If you're not running your mandolin through an Eric Johnson preset, you should.

Written and recorded between 9:38 AM and 11:01 AM Feb 6th, 2026.

#rock #blues #bluesrock

I play #mandocello, #mandolin, #drums, and #vocals on this track.

Might take a brief FAWM break over these next couple days.

Lyrics

River’s getting full, fish and bricks and dollar bills Swimming is for fools, walk the polyester shell Tapdance on the trash, let me catch your eye Grab my hand, I'll pull you in, let's dive, let's die

Tell a friend how sweet I am Tell a friend you lost your mind Tell a friend, we'll have a grand ol’ time

Silver's getting dull, perfect plans have gone to waste People feel the pull, put em right back in their place Dripping from the dregs, give it one more try Grab my hand, I'll pull you in, let's die

Tell a friend how sweet I am Tell a friend you lost your mind Tell a friend, we'll have a grand ol' time

Filter’s getting foul, predators and points of view Sifting through the sand, tryna find something to do Gold dust on the bed, treasures lost to time Grab my hand, I'll pull you in, let's dive, let’s die

Tell a friend how sweet I am Tell a friend you lost your mind Tell a friend, we'll have a grand ol' time

Love this one too. Getting Spin Doctors vibes - but if they were from Seattle.

@fantex 9h

Whoa, glad I searched #mandolin ... rocker!

@andygetch 1d

Whoa, this one knocked my socks off!

@cleanshoes 1d

This rocks. Grunge needs more mandolin. Love the fuzzy vocals, as well as the dynamic between verse and chorus.

Damn, anyone who can play drums on their demos (particularly this well) is already legend status in my eyes. This is a total bop, massive energy, love those distorted filtered vocals (you’ve got an awesome rock scream btw!), and the guitar work’s also stellar. And you did all this in a couple of hours… you crazy musical wizard you. Big fan already…

@wynia 2d

such a giddyup of a vibe! There is the perfect amount of fuzz to the voice and distortion in the guitars. Nice drums. Loved this throughout; you rock!

@aeye 2d

This is super slick. The vocal delivery in this is everything. This just oozes cool

@tcelliott 2d

YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSS! So much dirt and grit. CAN NOT SIT STILL! Leg is stomping of it's own accord. This is awesome! Love effing end, too. (Almost swore there, I got too excited.)
