Lyrics
it came suddenly
the day he sat down
right there amidst the traffic
below the buzzing of electric insects
he put his ear to the pavement
beyond the rumble of the streetcar
he hears a river rushing
and all we see
are his empty eyes
but there are tears of joy in his mind
and as the pretty humans shuffle by
amidst radio waves and microwaves
he lets his outer skin decay
he put his ear to the pavement
beyond the rumble of progress
he hears a river rushing

Bright Brown is sonic cinema. Bittersweet layers and textures abound, and beautifully crafted songs exist at the core. Alex Nahas’ verse boldly chooses to sit “between the meager and the mundane” elevating the everyday. He generates a broad sonic palette on the rarely seen Chapman Stick conjuring up a filmic landscape.
