Bolt From The Blue

When we picture our prospective romantic partners, the tronie that we conjure usually comes accompanied by a laundry list of fantastical qualities and interests. Maybe we pick out the colour of their hair or imagine they will have a similarly hip taste in Hungarian psych music to us. Maybe we picture they are taller than us, shorter than us, wear an eyepatch, carry a blade.

The reality of it renders these fantasies nonsensical. Meeting someone that you fall in love with makes it all too obvious that you can't control these factors and to attempt to is a laughable course of action.

What's more, the multitudes contained within that real person will be nothing like you could have possibly guessed ahead of time.

Here's the newest song from Calendar - Phase III, the latest Granfalloon album. It's called 'Bolt From The Blue'. Available right now for you, as a subscriber on Patreon or Bandcamp.
