Dylan Moon, the newest signee to the VNRBL RVNG Intl. label, will release Only the Blues, his debut full-length, on August 30.
Before that, though, there’s this: Moon’s dropped a video for first single “Song for Jerry” today, June 18, 2019.
Per RVNG, the track is indeed named in tribute to that Jerry, you know the one, from that band, from the ’60s? With the rainbow bears, and the live albums?
The track presents a miasma of thin drum machine chugs and appropriately Dead-esque guitar wobbles, over which Moon dazedly croons. “Please Jerry, guide the trip for me,” he sings, with a vocal timbre that bizarrely reminds this admittedly Minnesota-based reporter just slightly, every once in a while, of Ryan Olcott from 12 Rods (?!).
