Musically it is inspired by The Who, where it feels like it's ready to fall off the tracks at any moment but the chaos maintains a rawkus control somehow. Vocally for this song I drew inspiration from David Bowie and Warren Zevon. The outro jam was an idea that came very late in the process, where I thought "the song feels so good, can we jam it out?" The dueling lead guitars are reminiscent of Allman Brothers dual lead guitar harmonies. I still do "chase the sun" by seeking out time in the sunlight every day. It's possible to, as I find it highly charging and healing. I also still seek thrills and adventure." - Paul Niehaus IV write your comments about the article :: © 2023 Jazz News :: home page |
