about

The term “black sheep” is an unofficial term that ex-Jehovah's Witnesses use to describe to themselves. Growing up as a Witness is an experience that is almost impossible to describe; when you leave, you have a constant, lingering feeling that you are somehow different from everyone else around you, and a part of yourself never grows out of this. This song is for all the black sheep around the world who have had the courage to leave and who continually struggle with what it means to be “worldly.”

lyrics

This stygian sea swallows us whole
Save our souls
Save our souls
We black sheep are tossed and turned away
The white whale circles and waits down below

Apocalypse from your lips
It's all you ever you say

about

Jesus on the Moon Puyallup, Washington

Jesus on the Moon is a collection of lo-fi songs I've been recording in basements, garages, and bedrooms since 2005. Recently, Derek Reed joined the ranks and, with the help of a drum machine, we've started to bring the songs to the stage.
