about

The new hectic single - delivering the essence of the upcoming album - Fall 2017.

Summersong serves as an autobiography of an artist in times of war - where post colonial identity and escapism confronts the question of the real use of art, apart of luxurious artistic self indulgence. Cinematic, personal, chaotic.

Are you ready for the Summer?

lyrics

a year ago there was a war
but I wrote poems about my lover
there was no sign from my own brother
the only rings were the alarms

I never cared about the bombs
because I was already hiding
what good is art for prayers reciting?
No underwritings for bullets biting

when you kept asking what was I thinking
I said i'm looking at the stars
you thought the skies were so romantic
while i was calculating miles
while I was calculating limits

while I was calculating lies
to keep you with me
to keep you with me
it's boiling hot in that disguise

the frequent flyer
in star alliance
has more importance
than dying orphans

where we come from it's always summer
where we come from it's always red
