THE BIG TAKEOVER presents MOAT’s GONE BY NOON

THE BIG TAKEOVER presents MOAT’s GONE BY NOON.

The MOAT project is releasing a taster from the upcoming album, POISON STREAM (to be released in early 2021 through Schoolkids Records). It’s been cooked for a while but the world hasn’t allowed us to open the oven door until now when the aroma proved too much and now it sits on the kitchen table waiting to be consumed.

GONE BY NOON has been described as “Catchy harpsichord-induced melancholia by a protagonist juggling the aftermath of loss and betrayal”. It will be available from the 9th September 2020 through all your favourite platforms but you can hear it first and exclusively via THE BIG TAKEOVER magazine right now, click here.

Lyrics

The blood on your lips
Drips, red honey slips into a pool
The lies that you tell
Corrupt my heart
Infect my soul

Silence spills like a wave in the dark
The films you play
Black and white
A final scene – crying
And you’re gone

The shock in your eyes
Lies, the wailing cries
Of a tragic fool
Your game hides the truth
Dice, playing cards
Mirrored in the roof

You cheat with the best
When you’re caught you’re aloof
An avalanche
That seals
A silent shroud
The noise has gone
All that’s left – speechless
An empty shell

Love’s last tears
Have fallen down
From your cheek
The loaded words
Ricochet
Around the room
Exotic birds
Against the glass – goodbye
Gone By Noon

Missing

This is my stolen 1965 Rickenbacker 12-string, serial number EB157. If there's any chance of this guitar coming back to me before I go to meet my maker, then that would be wonderful. Please contact me if you have any information.

In autumn 2018 I went to Nashville, Tennessee, to In autumn 2018 I went to Nashville, Tennessee, to work with Salim Nourallah and his band, Richard on keys, Joe on guitars, Jason on bass and drums, and John on drums and bass and in a co-production role with Salim and as a fifth member of his band. After Nashville we retired to Dallas where all but Joe live (he lives in San Antonio) and worked on overdubs, mixing was next…then the pandemic hit. Finally, the album is now mixed and will be released in early 2023 but before that, we have the See You In Marfa EP from those sessions released yesterday on Bandcamp:

www.palosantotx.bandcamp.com/album/see-you-in-marfa-ep

A CD is also available and streaming will be from August 19th. The lead track on the EP is Hold On To The Night, complete with a video featuring an animated yours truly and co-written (a bit) by me: https://youtu.be/GhUk-MDm1VQ

This whimsical video was done by an Australian videographer/musician, Jordan Thompson.

Songwriting & Guitar Guidance with Marty Willson-Piper
ORDER HERE

"These are awesome sessions that I highly recommend for guitar players of all levels. Very informative, frank discussions on everything related to guitar and music in general. Definitely a must for anyone pursuing songwriting."
(Stephen G., VA, USA)

"Marty knows how to bypass scales and get to the heart of feel and timing. His musical knowledge spans multiple cultures and genres. Perhaps most importantly, Marty is a cool dude. I highly recommend his guitar guidance." (Jed B., MN, USA)

"Ok, so you’re sitting in your home and Marty is across the world but is actually right here teaching you how to play guitar and write songs. He is a delight to talk to and he is your teacher, meaning he wants to see you get something out of his lessons. You know he’s paying attention and wants to steer you in the right direction. I am so grateful and humbled that he offers his time in this manner. This is an amazing opportunity for anyone who admires anything from his enormous body of work. How often do you get to learn from somebody that inspired you in the first place? Amazing." (Ann S., CA, USA)
