about

Plaintive and patient, “Stone Cross” is the first single from American Grandma’s Rare Knives of Light. The track is split in two. Songwriter Jensen Keller poses a number of largely hypothetical questions over spiraling guitar echoes. “Does the sun shine bright forever? Will I commemorate you with a painted sign?” After the latter question, the song leaves the ground, shimmering and ascending. Fans of Bark Psychosis and Flying Saucer Attack will be delighted.

lyrics

Roses growing up from the dirt
Raised hand, the father looks at me
Does the sun shine bright forever?
Will you play music for me when I’m gone?

Fleeting, he could be dying
What’s on Apple’s mind today?
Does the sun shine bright forever?
Will I commemorate you with a painted sign?

Oh I want to know, I want to go so high
Every concrete block in my window's eye
