2020 has been the year of the unexpected. Without live shows, we dedicated the year to our sisterhood, resilience, and to finishing this album, a symbol of our work together. With manufacturing delays, the exact date that the vinyls will be finished is uncertain, but we’re hope to see them before the end of the year. At last, we present to you, “We Saw Blue”. We love you and appreciate the support.

about

Our world is changing so quickly. “Slow Down” is a message of positivity to the world. One that encourages us to revel in the beauty of spring, to focus on loving ourselves, and to remember the natural cycles of life. “Slow down” was written as a mantra during the pursuit of love. A way to let go of expectations. A way to see things as they are instead of as you wished them to be. To allow the rhythm of spring to speed up the natural world while giving oneself time for stillness. By slowing down I allow myself to feel. Release from the past. A call to the present. All we truly have is the moment.

lyrics

It’s not the poetry that keeps me coming back for more
It’s the spaces between talking that I long for
The quiet gazing
That speaks volumes
The silent moments
We spent alone in your room

Between hotels and bus rides
Between the sunset and the moonrise
That’s where I long to stay
Watch the rest of the world
Fall away

And I can see the anger in your eyes
You’re mad at the world but not at life
So I’ll bate my breathe to keep your flames at bay
Watch the rest of the world fall away

And slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down

Ah-um ba ba ba-ah
Ah-um ba ba ba-ah
Ah-um ba ba ba-ah
Ah-um ba ba ba-ah

And maybe I’ll come back around like the rest of it does
In the springtime
I’ll come back to where I started like the rest of it does
In the springtime
So I’ll make you a deal. I’ll trade you my stories for your sweet sweet rain
In the springtime
And watch them all just wash away
In the springtime

* Oohs*

We make plans and we learn to change them
We stay still so we can move right on ahead
This may not be where I’m supposed to stay, but hey…
It’s a nice place

To slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down
Slow down, slow down

This is her best record since Actor. It is great to hear a more stripped-down record where her incredible guitar playing is front and center. jpowell736

Vintage Machine
by Jackie Venson

supported by 7 fans who also own “Slow Down”

This album is absolutely fantastic; every track is exceptional, and I simply can't choose a favorite! It served as my initial exposure to Jackie's music, and I'm eagerly anticipating the remastered versions and delving deeper into their repertoire. The sound is refreshingly distinct, and I particularly enjoyed the bridge and outro on Vintage Machine. HeLikesHisMusic
