about

Want to hear a blend of folk-rock, synthwave, darkwave, cyberpunk all in the same song? It’s all here in ‘Carrier Hotel’, a hard-boiled detective story about losing your identity and finding love in the metaverse.

Co-written with long-time musical collaborator, Ron Yamauchi, and featuring contributions from a team of fab Vancouver musicians.

lyrics

from streetlight to streetlight
wind your way down Front Street
you dodge the net sweepers
squeeze through a choke point
you carry a message close to your heart
you carry a message close to your heart

you can kiss but we won’t tell
at the carrier hotel
we’re all a little closer to hell
at the carrier hotel

a room on the eighth floor
warm light & machine hum
greets you at the door
stay away from the window
with a little cash and fake ID
you can be whoever you want to be

at the carrier hotel
you can kiss but we won’t tell
we’re all a little closer to hell
at the carrier hotel

the hotel down Hudson Street
is a disappearing act
every room is full of masks
you walk out as someone else
it’s the most real you’ll ever be
packing your new identity

i’ll meet you at the door, a room on the 8th floor
you can drown in the ecstacy, get lost in your fantasies
leave your heart at the carrier hotel...
