about

Part One is the first of four EPs. This collection deals with the formation of the band and developing friendships among the band mates and between the protagonist and the guitarist's girlfriend. These aggressive, groove-oriented tunes are formed around bass riffs and rhythms. They are connected by mellow interludes that weave songs together.

about

Washing Away expresses a need for resolution and recovery of hurt feelings and broken hearts. This solo project is based ... more on a collection of tunes Lewis pieced together after the break-up of Half Dug. It is the story of a love triangle that would eventually ruin friendships and tarnish memories. less

Track Name: Welcome
Performers setting up here prepare for doors to open, and the crowd will gather near for all to take part in the roles they play on and off stage. Welcome to this big show tonight. Please clear the stage and turn out the light. An act is set in motion before music is even played, and two get the notion that connections have been made. The begin to talk before the moment is lost. Welcome to this big show today. It's all set up so come what may. He tells her, then she tells him little bits of history, and slowly now the pages in this play are laid out to be seen. Welcome to this big show tonight. Please take the stage and turn on the light.
Track Name: Blank
His friend has passed on and is passing along the chance to learn and play along with the band. His choice has been made: to take advantage of this opportunity for expressing all his _____. The old drummer could not quite get along with his bandmate, the boyfriend of his crush forbidden. He gave them an ultimatum and they said no, so he had to go. His choice has been made to give up on all this and pursue other ways to make him feel all his _____. Now he can see why one would give it a try, but there are no thoughts yet as to whether he'll get lured in like some poor lonely bum, begging for a chance at more. The choice isn't maid whether or not he says it is, because he can't control what makes him feel all his _____.
Track Name: Applause or Silence
The girl has come over to take a listen to the music that they've written. Here excitement is a sign they should consider going out to play. Maybe it's not such a bad though to test the waters whether or not playing in front of an audience will result in applause or silence. They know someone who knows a guy who might be able to help them to fill in a spot opening for a small band coming through on tour. Alright, it's not such a bad time to see if whether or not they find that playing in front of an audience will result in applause or silence. The day has come closer for their first show and they've invited everyone that they know, but still they're nervous and excited to see if their friends will be delighted. It's time they have to take the stage now for their first real trial to see how playing in front of an audience will result in applause or silence.
Track Name: Building On
Building on early successes, the bonds they have developed are stronger than any guesses. The question is, will they be kept? Building on their mutual interest, this friendship is becoming more likely that it will soon test loyalties deeply running. It sure doesn't show, but they've got to know where the wind blows is not where hope grows. Taking from what they've done so far, it makes sense to continue building on the work that they are encouraged to see through. It's got to show and they've got to know where their heart goes is where their love grows.
