about

“Saturday” is a prelude to our full-length album release “Cosmic Comics,” (full album release on 1/29/2020) and kicks the journey off with astral grooves, lyrical hooks, and a cosmic soundscape to float away on. Written by Derek Engstrom, produced by Keegan Matthews, “Saturday” embodies the evolution of the band’s sound since their 2019 release “Deux,” a double-single, and introduces added layers of strings, horns, and percussion to the original soul of the core quintet.

lyrics

Saturday, Saturday, Saturday with you
Is the reason that can get me through.
Another day to lift the weight.
Forget about the childish things we do.

When I look into your eyes.
They shine the same color.
Of brown and green and white.
It’s a marvel to behold you.
As we stare into the sky.
Forgive ourselves our former plight.
Only time can nullify.
Bring us closer to the light.

Saturday, Saturday, Saturday with you
Is the reason that can get me through.
Another day to lift the weight.
Forget about the childish thing we do.

Until we love ourselves again.

And absolve ourselves the obvious,
Honey let the light shine in

Saturday, Saturday, Saturday with you
Is the reason that can get me through.
Another day to lift the weight
Forget about the childish things we do.
