Ahead of a massive tour throughout Europe and the US this Spring, Still Corners have released their seven-minute desert-noir odyssey, ‘Far Rider’.
With the sun at its peak a weary desert traveller picks their way across the soft sandy floor trying to forget a lost love or maybe a past best forgotten. Crystal clear guitar lines drift in and out as the bass weaves and snakes over a tight drum beat. Tessa Murray croons steady as a pulse, as the song winds like a caravan toward the orange horizon.
Tessa explains, “This song is about leaving, lost love and finding yourself somewhere on the journey, really it’s about redemption. I recently drove 6000 miles across the southwest to feel the sun on my face and think. We used the dreamlike nature of the song to capture the landscape and a hypnotic feel to conjure up the long and lonely travel days.”
Lyrics:
Waiting for the rain to come
Staring at the sand in the baking sun
(here we are on the caravan)
Turn and turn the season wheel
(and I'm hoping we will get so far)
Visions of you time didn't heal
Sun rays stir a memory
Time doesn't matter to me, matter to me
Far rider
Keep on going till I right my mind
The past is gone and I'm still alive
Every time I hear the wind
I feel a change rolling in
Far rider
Keep on going
Keep on going
