about

Another slice of unique indie rock from JimBaumerME, this one focusing the dwindling of the U.S. indie scene, and places like Dayton, Ohio, and Raleigh-Durham, NC.

lyrics

People out there, missed my vibe
Not Really Cool, to my jive

No mid-90s Spin, to help find my indie kin
Just out in the wilderness rattlin'

Those Spotify reviews
Always miss my muse
All they talk about, is what I left out
Always harping on EQ

Dayton, Ohio on my mind
Vampire on Titus, I hit rewind
Pushing four-track sound
When I hit the ground
Not gonna worry, or look around

Are there any places left to play
Wanna' book another tour today
Load up the van, don't need an okay from the man
Lookout world I'm on my way

Raleigh-Durham, coming soon
Hit the road in early June
I'm on my way, making music for another day
Indie rock city comin' to you
Indie rock city comin' to you
