about

Aaron Jones's 7th full length release--"Dear Dear Friend"! An electro-acoustic extravaganza, ecstatic and deeply contemplative all at once.

Inspired by the writings of Rumi, and three very dear friends, the album takes us deep into the jungle at the edge of the earth. In the undergrowth, loss, praise, and wonder bloom, fed by the ever-turning waterwheel; taking water, holding, turning it out; spilling, spilling, spilling.

Track Name: Dear Dear Friend
Dear dear friend,
So this is it?
The predetermined end of something flowering.
Don't we, though...
Bloom, bloom and bend
we wax perennial
confuse the start and end
of something circular...
Don't I, though?

Dear dear dear boy,
Where is your mind?
I'm playing coy, my parceled heart.
How was yours?
Track Name: Certain Days
Your spirit shattered, but I saved a little piece,
I keep it close to me, I keep it secret.
On certain days, it tears at my skin,
from without and from within
and I am cornered.

And all I can do is give in a let you
take me there, oh take me there.

Your spirit shattered, but I saved this piece,
it stirs inside of me, but I keep it quiet.
Tied up with string, wrapped in parchment paper cuffs
can I stuff you out? I sure try it.

And all I can do is give in a let you
take me there, oh take me there.

Oh I think it is
Oh I think it is
Oh I think it is so simple...
Oh I think it is
Oh I think it is
Oh I think it is so simple that we miss it.

Your spirit shattered, but I saved this piece,
it stirs inside of me, but I keep it quiet.
And on those future days when I worry like the wind
that white noise from within, I'm as good as a television.

And all I can do is give in a let you
take me there, oh take me there.

Oh I think it is
Oh I think it is
Oh I think it is so simple...
Oh I think it is
Oh I think it is
Oh I think it is so simple that we miss it.
