Cloud Cult

Cloud Cult, simply an amazing work of Art.

So, I have a new band that not only has inspired me in many ways, but whom has also moved me by song and story.  You can read up about the story behind this creatively majestic band on your own.  I am going to give you some live performances to observe, if you are an artist buy all of their albums, support them and create to them.  My music library is quite extensive and broad, I like many genres and styles of sound and musical form, but there are only a handful of artists that really move me.  Cloud Cult is one of those artists that musically and lyrically reaches into your soul and stirs you.  They even have visual artists that are a part of the band, these artists paint on stage during Cloud Cult sets to the music.  I wish we had more artists who combined there efforts in creation these days.  Enjoy...

34 summers of existence, already, alright…

New poetry...

Summer……..coffin like heat bleeds like Arizona, Feeds like rage on sunsets washed out blues and yellows,

Don’t even mind,

Don’t even care,

Resting, aching, reminding, retelling, remodeling self-notions

That whimper and wail for bring backs, take ways, and think of me’s,

If I try and out run the sun will the rays reach the end,

If I try and out frighten the moon will the lights begin to sway,

Break neck pace,

Heel crunching hand swept goodbye,

For now,

For rest,

They missed the canvas wool straight from the dust on sweaters that have been tucked away on the top shelf for two seasons away,

Steam from cup,

Drip from drunk,

Dry from mouth,

Throat to lung,

Gasp,

Sigh,

This is quick,

This is quickness,

And speed is word, and words are hard and sound is form,

Form for calm, come to sooth, and come to soon,

Forward shake,

And forward dance

And sway

And beauty

And want

And play……
