Q: What's the first song you learned to play on gu

Q: What's the first song you learned to play on guitar?

A: "The first song that I learned on guitar was 'The House of the Rising Sun'. Dad said everyone learns that song. I remember thinking, 'how can anyone play this? It's so many chords!' My dad knew what he was doing choosing that song. So, I tinkered around with that for several months. Playing and singing. Maybe tried to create some chords of my own, too. This is when I was about 12. One day, my dad asked me if I wanted to start guitar lessons. I shrugged and said 'sure'. I wasn't sure what this music thing meant to me at this point. So, he set me up at a small guitar shop in Savage, Minnesota called LaVonne Music, which is where I met a man named Michael. Michael is really the only person who ever formerly taught me anything on guitar. He had very long, white hair and wore fancy blouses and accoutrements. That was another first for me. I really liked Michael a lot, mostly because he was so soft spoken and very nice to me. Great man. I remember our first lesson together: he said "hi, Robert", sat down, plugged in his Fender Strat and started playing Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and Eric Clapton for me. It was like the most exciting thing ever to me. I'd even say I was intimidated. How could someone so calm play like that, you know? My feelings about music changed after that. Come to think of it, this may have been the first time I watched someone play a guitar solo live. Needless to say, after that lesson, I wasn't playing 'The House of the Rising Sun' anymore."

"It's Never Too Late To Say Goodbye" Lyrics

You wear a cold heart
A load that makes you strong
'Til one day you grow, then they're gone
A guilty act, a guilty mind
An idle love is left behind
There is no way to say goodbye

It's never too late to say that you love them
It's never too late to try
It's never too late to live on without them
And let go of the reasons why
But if they're already gone
And you're feeling all wrong
Since you couldn't be there at the end
It's never too late to say goodbye

You look in his eyes
You say you'll be back soon
Deep down you know that can't be true
It's hard to break old habits
When you feel you're out of tune
Still, you made peace on this night

It's never too late to say that you love them
It's never too late to try
It's never too late to live on without them
And let go of the reasons why
But if they're already gone
And you're feeling all wrong
Since you couldn't be there at the end
It's never too late to say goodbye

It's never too late to start all over again
They'll probably start all over with you
It may wound you and make you feel alone
Just like you did all those years ago
Well, well, goodbye

It's never too late to say that you love them
It's never too late to try
It's never too late to live on without them
And let go of the reasons why
But if they're already gone
And you're feeling all wrong
Since you couldn't be there at the end
It's never too late to say goodbye

You know it's never too late to say goodbye
It's never too late to say goodbye
I swear it's never too late, it's never too late, baby
It's never too late to say goodbye
It's never too late to say goodbye
It's never too late to say goodbye
It's never too late to say goodbye

"I needed a song that setup the premise of the alb

"I needed a song that setup the premise of the album's story line. So, I began to write a song told from the perspective of the 'Invisible Man', a loner who lives near the beach. He spots this beautiful woman dancing alone in a shore break in the ocean. It's high tide. This imagery triggers intense feelings of connection and longing within him. She is a teacher. Dedicated to her work just to feel alive. An academic country woman with a .357 mind. With a face as light as a swan's feather. And hair that burns like a wistful ember. She fell out of place and time with everyone she knew back east. And even further east from that. But I kept thinking to myself: why would she stray so far from home? So, I had to come up with some idea about what could shake her out of her comfort zone. And that's when the apocalyptic story line came to me. This sort of terrible event that wiped out the markets, crops - that sort of thing. And I just loved how this contrasted with both the idyllic coastal beach setting and all the quirky characters on the album. Anyways. These events lead her to the shores of southern California. Not to pursue beauty or love. But to survive. Following the crowd. Like the 'Invisible Man', she is a loner. She is his lonely dancer."

⚡'On Highway 1 With Nowhere To Go' - Merch Drop!

ON HIGHWAY 1 WITH NOWHERE TO GO finds Awe transporting listeners to the sun-soaked yet dystopian shores of Southern California's Pacific Coast Highway. This post-apocalyptic concept album weaves a poignant narrative of two lovers whose intense and dysfunctional relationship mirrors the broader themes of love, hope, loneliness, and self-destruction in a world on the edge. With a rich tapestry of alternative rock, glam rock, R&B, folk, and progressive rock, Awe crafts an emotionally charged and sonically diverse journey that lingers long after the final note.

Out September 13, Awe's 'On Highway 1 With Nowhere To Go' CD release includes lyrics, photos, and exclusive album artwork you can't get anywhere else!

"I Guess That's Why Ur The One", 2024
Words and music by @slatteryhq
Recorded by Awe

Tell me, baby, tell me now
Tell me what you like
Make me feel like we're going somewhere from here
Take me, baby, take me home
Take me, let's get a little closer
Dress me up, eat me up
I'll do it all for you

I give you love just to get no love
But that's all right, I want to stay
I get the clue, but I can't lose you (I don't want to lose you, baby)
You have a magic touch that wins me over
I guess that's why you're the one

Ooo, ooo
Ooo, ooo
Ooo, ooo
Ooo

Share your heart, baby, share your heart
Don't make me walk a one way street
Can I get to you at all? (Where am I? Which way do I go?)
Like a fool, I cried poor me with you at the table
How naive, I guess I showed my cards too fast

I climbed a mountain, bought fancy cars
I built my body to look like the stars
To be good enough, what do I have to do? (Come on, tell me, tell me, tell me)
But you will always be the love of my life
I know that's why you're the one

Ooo, ooo
Ooo, ooo
Ooo, ooo
Ooo

I feel my world has been pulled out from my feet
I had to change who I was, I need a love that is complete
All I want to know is that you'll never give your soul to another guy
Say what you like, but I'll still be your best one, your best one tonight

When things go wrong, I feel the blame
Babe, let me help you make a smile
Don't make me second guess myself (It's okay, I still love you, baby)
I ache in my bones when you shout out my name
I guess that's why you're the one

Ooo, ooo
Ooo, ooo
Ooo, ooo
Ooo

I climbed a mountain, bought fancy cars
I built my body to look like the stars
To be good enough, what do I have to do? (Come on, don't play games no more, baby)
But you will always be the love of my life
I know that's why you're the one

You're the one
Mmm, you're the one
La, da, da, da, da

"I just wanted to write an honest love song. So, I

"I just wanted to write an honest love song. So, I went inward a little bit. The song tells the story of a relationship in strife and selfish desperation. Obsession. Carnal longing. How someone could be in a relationship and yet still feel so alone. Unheard even. I saw these undertones of 'Kenny & Dolly' and The Pogue's 'Fairytale of New York'. Tom Waits and Bette Midler, too. Originally, it was a song about a jewelry vendor who professes his love to a 'lady of the night' in Venice Beach. You know, a guy of many names with only one thing on his mind. But as time went on, it became clear to me that this song was about a moment of clarity between the invisible man and lonely dancer. Their meeting was like feeling a deluge of wonder and joy on a blue moon. Like seeing a lady spontaneously combust from her cigarette. There was so much passion. But it happened before they had a chance to think about how they actually felt about each other. So, now they're thinking. Realizing. Are we going to stick with this thing? Because if we are, it's going to be a commitment. And maybe they weren't prepared for that. So, the invisible man sings about the things she does, and the way it makes him feel. Good and bad. I heard this lovely call and response happening between them. I don't see it as a breakup song. It's a real-life love song."

On September 7, 2023, Slattery took to writing the

On September 7, 2023, Slattery took to writing the song "Nomad". The following excerpt would become the premise for the song. It was inspired by conversations that Slattery overhead from transient people in LA. The song is about a man who becomes homeless after a bad break up:

"She could read every thought, you know. Every secret. She had a fairy tale pride and a voice that sounded like a wave crashing on Broadway. A swagger as tall as vine. My ocean girl. And we tell jokes about some singer in New Orleans. And the delivery man slips another dollar through the door. And she won't touch me. What'd you say, baby? I just showered. But she holds her peace. I was always 7 minutes behind. 7 minutes from somewhere. It drove me mad, you know. I always checked that damn clock, and it was always 7 minutes behind. If that clock ever gets fixed, tell her to come back to me."

On Highway 1 With Nowhere To Go, the new album from Awe, is out now on all streaming services, CD, and digital. Stream Nomad now. Link in bio.
