The next single off of the upcoming Skittish record is the opening track: Intro (vert). Here is a writeup from BeatsPerMinute as well as a SoundCloud streaming link.

It is also on Spotify. Below, you can watch the lyric video for the song.

Here is the new video. Made with whatever I had available to me in quarantine.

Some nice mentions about the new single from the following blogs:

Essentially Pop

Surviving the Golden Age

Glide Magazine

Thanks to Team Clermont for their continued support of the new album!

..and here are the lyrics to Car Crash Companion:

Its hard enough to see the twisted highway
Without the dome lights going on and off
I could park inside the fog and refill monthly
And lose the one thing I got going on
It’s a long way to go in a bust up ride
Plastic Shaman by the side of my bed
Ayahuasca in the desert just past midnight
Tapping frequencies of secret intent
Double agents on the inside
I wish I was fine with the normal life, no fight in me
Looking for the white flag, psychonaut leads the way
I’m tired of my own brain fuck fuck fucking me

Its hard enough to lug the load I carry
Without repeating everything in three
You left your brand upon my cheek in cherry
But I was too distracted thinking bout the ones that came ‘fore me

It’s a long way to go and its mostly down
But I promise that you’ll never be bored
It’s a brand new fight in a brand new town
With the feeling that I’ve been here before
I think I left the burner on
I wish I was fine with the normal life, no fight in me
Looking for the white flag, psychonaut leads the way
I’m tired of my own brain fuck fuck fucking me up

Don’t wait for me
Don’t wait for me, save yourself

It a long way to go for a happy end
That depends on when you’re stopping the tall tale
Cause you’re looking at the last of the gentlemen
Who can fake it through a social assail
Leaving toothmarks on the slow-pour

I wish I was fine with the normal life, no fight in me
Looking for the white flag, psychonaut leads the way
I’m tired of my own brain fuck fuck fucking me up

hi all-

i hope you are keeping yourselves safe and your minds occupied.

i have finished a new skittish album, largely recorded at night in my college’s studios in savannah. i came out of there with a grad degree, 3/4 of a finished album, and a bunch of film/tv sound work that has been keeping me busy. i will still release this album in 2020, but like many of you, i’m trying to gage just how mad all of this will be. we may be looking at a cataclysm and not a hiccup, so time will tell. hell, if these quarantines are drawn out long enough perhaps i’ll crawl back on to social media for updates and new content.

stay safe, and make some memories.
