NEW EP: THE ROOT CELLAR SESSIONS
Available now for purchase on Bandcamp and streaming on Spotify, APPLE MUSIC, AND Youtube.
Back in 2015, Witch Tree put together an 8-song demo so venues and bands could hear what we sounded like when working on booking shows.
We originally planned to re-record all these tracks for our first proper release but as our style evolved it felt more difficult to put together a cohesive package of the songs we had ready to go. We decided to pick some of the songs from the demo tracks that still accurately represented how we played them live and had Danny Anton Productions remix and remaster them. Danny really went above and beyond with refining the demo tracks we gave him and what we’ve ended up with is a great sounding EP of five songs.
The remaining three songs from the demo will be re-recorded and included on our forthcoming LP, Be a Great Sea.
WITCH TREE IN THE RABBIT HOLE
Hello friends! We are pleased to announce that tonight at 8:00 PM, Witch Tree’s first single, Damn Well, will be featured on The Rabbit Hole on fuzztalkradio.com.
The hosts of The Rabbit Hole describe their show as, “two brothers, ridiculous and spontaneous conversation, great music, cocktails, movie quotes, and a strict dress code. What could go wrong? You may not learn something new but you will laugh. Supper coats required.”
We’re not sure what supper coats are, but that’s still a pretty compelling pitch. Everyone should probably check it out.
In keeping with the season, tonight’s show will also include thoughts on slasher films and creepy love songs. Tune in to fuzztalkradio.com tonight at 8:00 tonight to catch The Rabbit Hole and new music by your favorite local band (and yes, we mean Witch Tree; just humor us on this, please).
NEW SINGLE: DAMN WELL
We are excited to release the single of Damn Well, from our forthcoming EP, The Root Cellar Sessions.
Back in 2015, Witch Tree put together an 8-song demo so venues and bands could hear what we sounded like when working on booking shows. We originally planned to re-record all these tracks for our first proper release but as we accumulated more songs and our style evolved it felt harder and harder to put together a cohesive package of all the songs we had ready to go. We decided to pick some of the songs from the demo tracks that still accurately represented how we played them live and had Danny Anton Productions remix and remaster them. Danny really went above and beyond with refining the demo tracks we gave him and what we’ve ended up with is a great sounding EP of five songs. The remaining three songs from the demo will be re-recorded and included on our forthcoming LP, Be a Great Sea.
A slightly longer album version of Damn Well will be included in the release of The Root Cellar Sessions on November 4th, 2022.
LYRICS
VERSE
You know damn well how to get me to that place
and just how hard it is to get back
And I know damn well what you’re trying to say
and you don’t even have to ask
CHORUS
But we do it anyway
Just put off the pain another day
VERSE
We’re so well received as we rationalize
that this is going to be the end
But no truth is held in those desperate lies
and it all falls down again
CHORUS
So we do it anyway
Just let it slide another day
SOLO
VERSE
And you know damn well, yeah we both knew all along
Inspiration hits when everything else has gone wrong
Resolve renewed, yeah we saunter forth again
Determined this time, this is it
But we know damn well we’re as weak as we’ve ever been
and the failure seems so imminent
CHORUS
But we do it anyway
Just put off the pain another day
Yeah we do it anyway
And live false hope another day
