about
Neil Sullivan’s debut single carries echoes of summers passed. Lyrical honesty remains a hallmark of Sullivan’s music, and in “27” his gaze is turned inward to share a dialogue questioning his identity, purpose, and values. A lush arrangement of electronic waves, vintage keyboards, and rich guitar-swells provide the foundation for this downtempo release.
lyrics
LYRICS:
Who I am, what I am, what I need, and what I believe in.
Could it be that it’s me, all I need?
I feel it like a summer rain
When it’s running down my back again
And I really think I always knew
That I’d feel a whole lot better
And I’ve been wasting time, (shit)
I’m almost 27
It took some time to realize though...
But I’m here, I’ve arrived.
Who I am, what I am, what I need
Could it be, could it be, could it be.
Who I am, what I am, what I need
Could it be, could it be, could it be.
I feel it like a summer rain
When it’s coming back around again
And I hear when the thunder rolls
The rumble of the heavens
And I’ve been wasting time, (shit)
I know that I’ll do better
It took some time to realize though
But I’m here I’ve arrived
Who I am, what I am, what I need
Could it be, could it be, could it be.
Who I am, what I am, what I need
Could it be, could it be, could it be.
I feel it like a summer rain
When it’s running down my back again
And I really think I always knew
That I’d feel a whole lot better
And I’ve been wasting time, (shit)
I’m almost 27
It took some time to realize though...
But I’m here, I’ve arrived.
Who I am, what I am, what I need
Could it be, could it be, could it be.
Who I am, what I am, what I need
Could it be, could it be, could it be.

Neil Sullivan’s cathartic dives taken in his home studio produce lush, soft arrangements of guitars, vocals, keyboards, and
electronic production — a musical quilt that wraps both the artist and the listener in a shared experience. His poetic and simple songwriting reaches into his deepest experiences, touching upon love, loss, hope, and the artists’ journey in the heat of a changing world....more
The two sides to producer Steve White’s music—futurism and soulfulness—sit more comfortably together than ever before on his latest album as Steve Spacek, which balances boundary-testing sonics with earnest, heart-on-sleeve lyrics. Bandcamp Album of the Day Dec 11, 2018
