Couch Session #12 — Acrylics

Exclusive First Listen of "It's Cool Here" and "Counting Sheep"

Straight from a swanky Easter party they attended all day,
Acrylics came over to our place to play.
For them it was a celebration, but ol' lousy Passover for this one,
As I was full of matzo and other snacks not as fun.
Jason enlightened us with a short list of jokes,
about hassids and hipsters and all kinds of folks.
And with toy bunnies jumping around on the floor,
and voices worn from a long shoot the day before,
we recorded until we had what we needed,
then to a plate of ultra-rich brownies they proceeded.
While over, the duo shared two new songs with us,
stunning and perfectly lacking of fuss.
"Counting Sheep" is raw while also romantic,
dream-like, calm, and nowhere near frantic.
And "It's Cool Here" — which is fitting, you know,
since they're hanging out in our home, performing for our little show.
It is pretty neat, to have a band that you love
help celebrate a new holiday you know nothing of.
'Cuz if holidays are for family and things you hold near,
And are all about fun and full of good cheer,
Then my first Easter memories will be of this impression,
my home movies interpreted through this couch session.
So enjoy this new song and my newfound tradition,
as we present Acrylics, for your submission:
