about

A switch flips and you do something unexpected. Before you know it, you're on a journey of self-reflection. On a winding road of personal growth, confronting past versions of yourself. Searching for something that stays just out of reach.

"Blind Spot" was co-written with one of the Boston area's best songwriters, acclaimed Americana artist Bob Bradshaw, and features Andrew Stern (Mark Erelli Band, Dennis Brennan Band) on slide guitar, Dave Brophy (Will Dailey, Alisa Amador) on drums, Joe McMahon on bass, and Peter Fernandez on organ.

LYRICS

I took a ride out of the blue
What happened next surprised me too

I took a ride to clear my head
Said I’d return, I pressed on instead

I took a ride, I rode all day
Had to do more than get away

I took a ride, I held my breath
I had to see if anything was left

You’re in my blind spot baby
Trailin’ me everywhere
You’re in my blind spot baby
I can’t see you but I know you’re there

I took a ride out of concern
Not for myself, nor my return

I took a ride, I drove all night
I read the land by my headlights

You’re in my blind spot baby
Trailin’ me everywhere
You’re in my blind spot baby
I can’t see you but I know you’re there

I took a ride across the years
From scene to scene, shifting gears

I took a ride to ease my mind
But I couldn’t leave the past behind

You’re in my blind spot baby
Trailin’ me everywhere
You’re in my blind spot baby
I can’t see you but I know you’re there
I can’t see you but I know you’re there

I took a ride ‘cause I know what’s next
But no sense of when or what to expect

I took a ride because I know
My number's up and it's time to go

It’s been a blind spot, baby
Don’t take it too personal
It’s been a blind spot, baby
And it’s too late to reverse it now
It’s too late to reverse it now
It’s too late to reverse it now
