Sun on my Back

    A moment in time. This unique 150g vinyl pressing is a capture of change, and a tribute to the trans community. We are expected to not only rearrange ourselves to suit a public idea of how we should be, but to change instantly.

    Julz Evans began recording this collection of 5 songs shortly after starting hormone replacement therapy/testosterone. His vocals for each song were recorded periodically to show the deepening of his voice on T.

    The EP (recorded at Love Shack Studios, Footscray) is largely a folk composition, written on acoustic guitar and featuring the usual band instruments plus cello, violins, rich harmonies and an accordion as things start getting darker.

lyrics

I'm en route to a heart exhibition
Wish I could lose the nerves
A jack of diamonds, a master of none
Maybe this is what I deserve

The memories come up like a sea of savage waves
Pushing vivid scenes down to my shaking hands
And can you teach me not to grind my teeth?
I can barely roll into bed again
There must be something better than
Waiting for new dreams to find me

I got the sun on my back and wind in my hair
You don't miss much but you missed me there
Ain't no time like the present

This isn't new, my pedestrian story
An ambiguous tale that makes me sick
A jack of patience gestating in secret
A master of one
And maybe when I done
I'll find the strength to move that big red brick

Chorus

When someone tells you not to worry
When someone asks if you're okay
Well maybe you're not
But sometimes you just need to slow down
I've never heard a clock tick so loud as right now

Chorus

Got a knife in my back, and nothing to wear
You're playing your games but I don't care
Ain't no time like the present
