Silver Wood from WILD HARE by Kirk Adams

(I'll be releasing the songs from this album a little at a time. Don't worry, it's entirely finished and a hard copy will be available soon)

Wild Hare is sort of a collection of comfort music.

These songs started coming to me back when the lockdown for Covid began and I think my mind and creative consciousness was venturing back into the familiar sounds of my childhood - acoustic laden AM radio classics - as a way to fend off the uncertainty and gloom. I think it harkens back to the sort of soundscapes you might have absorbed as a young'un while maybe recuperating from a long day of running in the grass or playing 'hide & seek' at twilight, echoing from another room, almost heard as you drift away.

Some of these tunes are genuinely meant to be uplifting songs, and others are hopefully cathartic in their expressions of sadness and loss. Though they suffer from the unavoidable transference from the underworld to the waking world and an imperfect vessel to transfer them, they benefit from the collaboration of a few of my amazing musician friends lending their considerable talents to the recordings.

I have felt as though this collection was sort of meant to be enjoyed in the background, frankly. Just put on and let 'em play, to be absorbed and not scrutinized. Let them haunt your room.

Kirk Adams has made a name for himself with audiences and critics across the country. A longtime staple of the Tampa Bay music scene, Kirk's songs are packed with doom & gloom, chiming guitars, and catchy hooks. His writing can be touching, funny, thought provoking, spooky, and sometimes all of that in the same song.
