“This Dream,” came together during one of those life moments that make you question everything: an interstate move.
-
“We Move As Fast As Storms Allow” came from a dream. The chorus hits different with these layered harmonies that kind of sneak up on you.
-
“When Freedom Dies” is the third taste of that album, and it hits differently than you’d expect from a protest song.
-
“Wingman” started as an acoustic number Amaka performed at intimate venues got the full rock treatment, complete with layered guitars that give the track serious depth.
-
The “Mystic Highway” EP packs six rock and roll tracks. Allen’s obsession with analog recording and vintage gear isn’t some hipster affectation.
-
“Flowers”, was originally written by Paul Kamanski, the late songwriter behind The Beat Farmers’ “Hollywood Hills” and other classics. The band jokes that somewhere up there, Kamanski is waiting with either roses or a shotgun, depending on what he thinks of their version.
-
“Opening Song” kicks off the album with exactly the kind of energy you’d want from a band ready to prove something.
-
“Step By Step” is a track about taking life bit by bit, and it practices what it preaches.
-
“Blinded,” becomes an instant earworm. The setup is simple with acoustic guitar that could’ve walked out of a Jason Mraz session, paired with crisp R&B drums that nod to early Justin Timberlake.
-
“Baltimore City/Let the Brothers Breathe” is when justified fury meets face-melting guitar riffs. This track is a full-throated scream about police brutality against Black Americans, specifically naming Freddie Grey, Eric Garner, and Michael Brown.
