At the time I thought I was on my way …
But looking back maybe I was stuck.
Listen to Big Cypress Bound
Fittingly, this albums and the songs were written and published in what would, at the time, unknowingly be my final days in the tranquil yet tainted paradise of the Big Cypress Swamp.
In a departure from my first two albums, these songs evoke a sense of a place that is neither here nor there, but rather everywhere — and inescapable.
Or was I in the midst of a major escape act?
All is revealed in the final song.
As for my fourth act (i.e. album)?
Making three albums was a major milestone. To me, with its release, I’d made it, much like Nick Drake. Or is that a curse? After all, the third was also his last. Thus begging the question: After over a year without playing a song, will there be a fourth?
My guess on that is that you never know and I wouldn’t rule anything out.
