about
After traveling around the northeast in 2010 (New York’s Arlene’s Grocery, Boston’s Wadzilla Mansion, Stamford’s Seaside Tavern), Big Mosey has released their debut EP, Homeward At Daybreak, with Çöñàr Records. Co-produced with Jeremy Sklarsky, whose recent works include Freelance Whales’ Weathervanes (Frenchkiss / Mom + Pop Records), Homeward At Daybreak explores the stories and emotions of a Brooklyn band that has yearned to leave the industrial city behind.
Big Mosey’s dirty grooving tunes nod to southern influences like Kings of Leon and grunge groups like Pearl Jam, yet ache and growl in the vein of Howlin' Wolf or Tom Waits – delirious and victorious. Through months of performing they have developed a raucous live show, captured with the recent praise, “an onlooker has a hard time stopping the replay button in their mind after seeing [their] incredible show...Big Mosey put on a spectacle.”

- Track Name: Harold Called This Morning

Harold called this morning
He's been up on coke for days
Someone stole his purple crayon
How can he create?
Max came back from work this evening
He still lives at home
When he gets into fights, he sits down
He puts on his white wolf suit
Then max sails away
But his momma comes-a running in and asks
"Hey son, watcha doing on the floor in those ripped up clothes?
Max they haven't fit since you were four years old"
We once dreamt too
We were once read to
Please don't read another story to put me to sleep
I have dreams with them
When we're older
And you've disillusioned the ends
Paper dropped his trousers in a public restaurant
Screamed of strings and sealing wax and
"Little Jackie, Little Jackie
Wants to play cause I found Puff's scales
Buried underneath our ship so now I know
But dad where's Honah Lee? Where's my fantasy?
Everyday I wait for him but now I know exactly what you did"
We once dreamt too
We were once read to
We once sang
Max don't ya go home
They'll make you stay up
Keep on building your world as it's building you
Max don't ya go home
You should stay out
Keep on building your world as it's building you
Harold called this morning
He's been up on coke for days
Someone stole his purple crayon
How can he create?
Or design his way back home
Without his neon vision?
The terror just lasts on and on and on and on and
Are you happy now?
In your mixed up worlds?
Your luscious dreams have fall'n apart
You try to scream but you're just singing loud
Please don't read another story to put me to sleep
I have dreams with them
When we're older
And you've disillusioned the ends - Track Name: Rainbows Wild
-
She tiptoes the forest
Spreading her light everywhere
Bright are all of her children
With her fingers running through their hair
Though she moves kind of slowly
The world can feel her smile
She'll hurt if you stare too long
Even if you're distanced by miles
But I can see the sunlight through your eyes
Shining down on all of nature's childs
Let me shower you with my voice
Watch the rainbows run wild
Walking on the thin line of daybreak
Holding for your day
I saw you veiled behind bright beams
You were holding sweet flowers for May
Your silhouette breathing for some rain
As you kissed the clouds
Suddenly we're drowning in lightning
And falling through the ground
But I can see the sunlight through your eyes
Shining down on all of nature's childs
Let me shower you with my voice
Watch the rainbows run wild
Gonna watch the rainbows run wild
Gonna watch the rainbows run - Track Name: The Blue Skies Are Over
-
The blue skies are over baby
Don't look at me like your crazy too
A long walk won't be convincing
But this whole city will be deserted soon
The sidewalk, the waves roll over
We go swimming and love each other
Drive home and cook some supper
Don't you know what we're doing to one another?
The blue skies are over my baby
A red world might be exotic
A tiny bottle to add expense to her
Take your vacation in the tropics
You don't leave home
There'll be nowhere to return
Go out and join a workforce
Come home and chew your mouth off
Come home and chew your mouth off
But don't ever think about leaving the workforce
The blue skies are over my baby
I can see the Coliseum
As it looked two thousand years ago
The spires standing in the sunset
Block after block the golden city glows
Yeah, the world was over
When you and yours were outside singing
You got a vision?
Let's kill it honey
All we want is to save what's left
You got a vision?
Kill it honey
All we want is someone to save us
Yeah, the world is over
When you and yours are outside screaming
The blue... - Track Name: Rocking Chair
-
Rocking chair, rocking chair
You're way too still over there
Remind me of times
When the cupboard had food to bear
Dirty floor, dirty floor
I just can't clean you no more
I won't be clean again
Til my feet hit the distant shore
Wind winds up dew drops
Cropped by window panes
Playing the same game
We did in old age
When sense was something you learned
And didn't keep in a jar
Unless you've been saving
For that sweet candy bar
Leaky roof, leaky roof
I wish you had a clue
I'm thirsty as hell
But you're just dripping zero proof
