about

A song about working hard on creating a great work of art.
Been playing this riff for like 10 years before the lyrics came, kind of a manifestation of what the lyrics describe.

lyrics

Work, work
I’m so Hot
working in the sun
Boiling up like a pot
As I render sauce to perfection

Now
I’m givin’ it all my devotion
I chisel at my craft
with personal attention

Will I learn?
as I lean into my work
from muscle memory
and years of persistence?

No rest
I’m doin’ my level best
just workin’ in the sun
In the furnace of creation

Feel the breeze
blowin’ across the hillside
Feel the breeze
Coolin’ me on the inside
Feel the breeze
Blow across a workin’ man’s back
Cool me down and
Teach me to give back

In a flow
I give it what I know
From teachers I have learned
To focus my attention

Feel the heat, just
Pulsing like a downbeat
I hammer in the sun
In the process of creation

Feel the breeze
blowin’ across the hillside
Feel the breeze
Coolin’ me on the inside
Feel the breeze
Blow across my workin’ back
Cool me down and
Teach me to give back
Yeah

about

Jan Dylan Hunter Santa Rosa, California

I play all the instruments on all my recordings unless otherwise noted, my main tools being guitar, keyboard and percussion.

I grew up in the Virgin Islands where I learned steel pan, percussion and clarinet.

Since then living in other states like California exposed me to more culture. Recent trips throughout Europe and the US have also really widened my musicabulary.
-Still taking it all in.
