  • Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Nothing beats a good old-fashioned physical copy. Printed on brown cardboard (kraft stock) and featuring 'wraparound' artwork by the band's bass player Lian Wong, a drawing she completed during a break in the initial tracking session showing the recording setup used for Foxy's Farm.

    The physical copy features bonus track 'Acoustic Jellyfish', an impromptu atmospheric reworking of Dom White's song 'Electric Jellyfish'. This was unrehearsed and captured in one live take of the full band - a glimpse inside the studio (ok it was a barn) at Foxy's Farm.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Foxy's Farm via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics

what the hell kind of place is this
and why'd it take me so long to find
there's music running in the streets
like children, like blood, like my state of mind

let them roll, let them roll
those good old times so sweet and slow
let them swing, let them sway
let them carry you all away
well I feel like my soul woke up and opened up my eyes
i just want clear skies over New Orleans and you by my side

see them dancing in that second line
see them partying through the night
see them sleeping underneath a bridge
I guess life's not all red beans and rice

let them roll, let them roll
those good old times so sweet and slow
let them swing, let them sway
let them carry you all away
well I feel like my soul woke up and opened up my eyes
i just want clear skies over New Orleans and you by my side

I heard a voice in my head said just run
disappear into the crowd
now I lie awake in the night just dreaming up flimsy excuses
to un-catch that train
and be there again

the kind of place where you're up or you're down
you're high and rolling or you're broke and tired
I'm gulping down some kind of life and death gumbo
I never felt so inspired

let them roll, let them roll
those good old times so sweet and slow
let them swing, let them sway
let them carry you all away
well I feel like my soul woke up and opened up my eyes
i just want clear skies over New Orleans and you by my side
clear skies over New Orleans and you by my side
