RELEASE
4 track eP
Following the recent release of ‘SIRENS’ and ‘FLOOD OR FIRE’ and in anticipation of the release later this year of first album ‘LONE DRIFTERS?’ a 4 track EP is now available featuring the first 2 singles accompanied by the non exclusive album tracks ‘I LIVE’ and ‘THEIR SONG’. This preview of the album is also significant for the track THEIR SONG which was the initial collaboration by DAVE SCOTLAND and PETER KOPPES that galvanized their musical relationship to become SYNCRETISM.
EP Track list:
1. Sirens – a song of hope and courage.
2. I Live – a metaphoric analogy personifying a restored nylon string student guitar that also relates to personal resurrection through music. The magnificent extended electric guitar solo by Dave is evidence of his ultimate dexterity, versatility and passion for the instrument!
3. Flood Or Fire – a psychedelic rock harbinger of regret relating to climate change and also its parallel in relationships.
4. Their Song – a ‘Good Bye’ ballad with a compassionate message for those living in their own worlds without a true regard for others and themselves.
SECOND SINGLE RELEASE
flood or fire
Official digital only release of second single Flood Or Fire on May 15. A metaphoric and literal rocking alert about relationships or The Environment with an urgency and psychedelic guitar break during the current pandemic
FIRST SINGLE RELEASED
sirens
SIRENS is about the wonders of a destiny and the inspiration that drives the effort that might achieve it.
The philosophic lyric is playfully cryptic including a mild warning to enjoy the fun of the process but beware enjoying the fruits too much. Enjoy or else!
