IN HARM'S WAY. i am sorry. go get more tissues. (Patreon)

($3+ patrons stay tuned, downloads for this song will come your way a little later. $5+ people, i have some suprise backstory recordings for you.)

deep breath please.

this is a big one, my friends.

remember when i told you i was going to be putting out a shit-ton of art this season? i wasn't lying.

sorry to make you have to reach for the tissue box again, but this is just the way it is.

this song, unlike "The Ride", which was turned around in record time, has been in production since LAST WINTER. i am going to post the massive, massive project page with a lonnnnng back-story and millions of photos - warning: some of them slightly upsetting - later tonight.

but for now, i just want you to watch and listen. you'll learn everything you need to know in due course.

right now, just the art. 

i started working on this song in january. and the video (as many of you know, who were in it) was filmed in the spring. 

here it is...finally, as debuted by NPR on "all songs considered". 

watch/listen....and please share this link FAR and WIDE on socials today. i need your power:

a massive thanks to bob boilen at NPR who is a huge music fan. he saw this video and i am proud to say that he wrote back saying "now THAT'S a music video". 

you will understand when you watch.

so...go watch.

(as usual, headphones recommended).

i love you so much.

look at what is becoming possible with this patreon. i am sort of beside myself.

more soon.

p.s. i'll poke you again when i post the project page, but this song (and it's b-side sister, which i'm going to give you in the next few weeks) is available on 7-INCH! lovingly pressed with gorgeous artwork by andrew nelson...patrons will get first crack. hold the phone on that.
