NEW STORY ON @astrosam_ Samson written by @wkd.terryn - Tap play on first image for sound 🔊🔊🔊 - video from @sofarchicago . Only some serious jazz kids could contrive something as beautiful as Samson. Slow and timid then all at once, fire, cruelty and sadness. Helplessness. A striking tale of vulnerability complete with amazingly weird little psychedelic flourishes that make this piece a fun listen, despite Thair’s painfully soulful pipes. . I’ve only just met you. It’s gotten to the point where I think letting my guard down around you could be rewarding and free of scrutiny. You’re perfect. Something’s telling me to take it slow but my shoulder-devil says jump. How much time do we really even have? Or are we just on yet another joyful cruise; the lettering on the side reads “Titanic.” Love effectively numbs the pain, but, like any drug, it never lasts. . You’re cutting me there. It starts as a dull throbbing until I feel it, piercing. Millions of tiny needles coursing through my arteries and veins. My lungs, my eyes, legs, everything just stops working. Suddenly, this divine power, this secure confidence that you gave me backfires. I’m someone who I don’t recognize. I’m nothing. I’m less than I was before we embarked. I’m bare. From wrestling lions to a sad man, defeated and bald. Samson with no hair. . After this, Astro Samurai runs through the story again. How many more times will this happen before I learn my lesson? Maybe it’s just my own personal ebb and flow of relationships that I should learn to accept. Thair expertly glides, fine-tuned and clean jazz piano and ‘verb’d out guitar beneath his wings. A risen phoenix. . . @aarondaymusic @reubengarza @forboyslikeme @bendillinger @astrohayden . . . . . #aragonballroom #beatkitchenchicago #bottomloungechicago #chopshopchicago #emptybottlechicago #foundationroomchicago #houseofvanschicago #hungrybrain #lincolnhallchicago #parkwestchicago #reggiesmusicjoint #schubaschicago #spaceevanston #themetrochicago #thepromontory #tonicroomchicago #astrosamuraimusic #sofarchicago #bodiddley #weknowdiddley (at Thalia Hall) https://www.instagram.com/p/By5AZ8RBhAq/?igshid=yrsnx0h3p8qt
