New Song for Rhode Island Monthly and PVDlive’s Rhode Sessions

September 17, 2020

Excited to have recorded a new song from here at The Castle for Rhode Island Monthly and PVDlive’s Rhode Sessions. They’re working hard to bring a lot of attention to Rhode Island based artists. Be sure to check out their series on Instagram for other great artists!

This song is called “Ghosts”. There’s lots of taxidermy. You’ve been warned.

“Ghosts”

All forest again
I found my way in
Stumbling through your garden and chasing the birds away

Oh that deep night glow
With promises in tow
Slips through all that we know and gives it a name

Remember when we were off chasing sparks?
And when we caught them all and it still went dark?
We’ve probably gotten in too close
Fading like ghosts in the battlefield smoke

Thicker than wine
Curled in on our sides
Was it your days or mine leaching up from the ground?

Thinner than air
The smell of salt in your hair
So stubborn and bare before we washed it all down

Remember when we were off chasing sparks?
And when we caught them all and it still went dark?
We’ve probably gotten in too close
Fading like ghosts in the battlefield smoke
Fading like ghosts in the battlefield smoke

All forest again
I found my way in
Back through your garden, playing wind chimes in rain

By some unbelievable stroke of luck and fate, I me By some unbelievable stroke of luck and fate, I met my wife only a year ago this weekend on the 17th floor of the @graduatehotels in Providence for the @sojournerri Masquerade Ball. All year long we talked about heading back to the 17th floor again. With COVID, The Graduate in Providence never reopened and I was ready to spend the weekend together at Castle Blackamore... cheeseballing it up.

Today, @yes.dear took me on a secret car ride and when we stopped we were @graduatehotels in New Haven where we watched the virtual Masquerade Ball. I’ve been out cheeseballed.

This year has been hard on all of us. My wife is incredible and her thoughtfulness has been a bottomless book of matches in the dark. I say it all the time, so much so that I’m sure most of you wish I’d stop already, but I cannot believe how lucky I am.
Proud of these two for all that they do and fight Proud of these two for all that they do and fight for. #vote

Let me tell you a little about my best bud, @cbfie Let me tell you a little about my best bud, @cbfields. For over 20 years we’ve been making questionable decisions with heavy machinery, laughing like idiots at the idiocy of others, investing small fortunes in animals, and most importantly, picking each other up when life couldn’t look worse.

He has sat by my side in hospital beds to cheer me up, he’s helped me with 7 moves in the last 10 years, he didn’t punch me in the face when I drunkenly lit his leg on fire with a marshmallow, and he’s the most kind, supportive, reliable, and perfectly weird guy I’ll know and he has never once asked for anything in return. He went above and beyond for our wedding - it couldn’t have happened without him...

Colin, thank you for everything.

Ladies, by some act of god this man is single. DM for details. ;)
