about

syrup, go on (now SGO) focused the majority of 2020 aiming to write songs in as simple a way as possible - often with just an acoustic guitar and vocals. A second full length album was written and scrapped before the band found themselves satisfied with the new direction that is presented through 'Lavender Sky'.

The result is a more mature sound presented through robust songwriting. The more simple approach to presenting a feeling or story has given way to production choices which elevate and highlight the song rather than convolute it.

The song shares the feeling of new-found freedom and rediscovered autonomy. Lavender Sky provides pause, highlighting and acknowledging that even the most simple experiences, such as admiring the sunset and sharing intimate moments with friends, should not be taken for granted.

LYRICS

Meaningless exchanges tying you down
Full bursts and forces are pushing around
Loose grips on ideas floating away
Smells fill your nose leads your mind astray.
Down to your back porch
And you see your friends getting lost in the lavender sky

Lavender sky

Long talks and memories are filling the room
Small potted flowers starting to bloom
Loose grips on ideas floating away
Smells fill your nose leads your mind astray

To the lavender sky

Down to your back porch and you see your friends they're getting lost in lavender sky

Lavender sky
