Thoughts And Prayers --- 2020-01-01

THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS... It can be a genuine and authentic spiritual expression; it can also be a hollow response to a horrific tragedy. Meaningful meaninglessness, a perfunctory catch phrase when one doesn't have the time or inclination to investigate what is beneath. It is the 😢 that one throws out and then...back to shopping. It can encapsulate the disappointment we feel when we see the response to so much devastation. It is poison and the antidote. It can be a positive missive of hope and connection, a hypocritical assertion, or a snarky retort. It is also the title of our new record. One thing is for sure, most of us have had thoughts and have prayed, in one form or another. So, that's cool. Things can seem incredibly futile and we often get caught in the "what's the f'ing point of it all". Nothing new there. The anger and disappointment is overwhelming at times. Understood. LIFE. I get paralyzed by all of this, and start to lose touch with what's important. Because, LIFE. My response is to keep making music. It is the most important unimportant thing I can do, for better or worse. It is positive, it is personal, and it brings people together. all songs by james rohr copyright 2020 universal spleen ASCAP
