“Sad Sometimes”

Third and last single “Sad Sometimes” is out and about! Full album coming out on September 30th!

https://fanlink.tv/SadSometimes

About the song:

“Sad Sometimes” starts off with a negative tone of dark thoughts and the pointlessness of everything, but quickly resolves with a slower, more positive ending. The second part of the song gradually emerges into a more comforting feeling that even though there are times when nothing makes sense, there are still many important little things that lift my spirit and happiness that I want to concentrate on more often.

Lyrics:

Sometimes I wanna kill myself
But someday I’m gonna die anyway
So why wouldn’t I just stay for a while

What the point of this
When nothing gonna be mine
What they screaming for 
For me it’s only big lie
And then you showed me love
For us to just simply die

I’m just waiting on 
Line

So I think to get comfort
Of the little things passing by
They can often bite your own soul
But at the end you’ll be fine

So I think to get comfort
Of the little things passing by
They can often bite your own soul
But at the end you’ll be fine

“Simple Boys”

Second single “Simple Boys” is out and about on all the major platforms: https://fanlink.tv/SimpleBoys

About the song:

This one is kind of funny take on immaturity of some man – not in a derogatory way. At the end of the day, all we ever need is love, even “Simple Boys”.

>>>>PRESS RELEASE<<<

Lyrics:

Me and my buddies

Easy and baked

Going to party

Hope she’ll understand

When fight will brake

We will be first

We don’t know karate

But we know self defense

Decision was made

Now It’s to late

We gonna stay home

And master the bait

Don’t be mad

Don’t close the doors

We are just simple boys that need love

Don’t be mad

Don’t close the doors

We are just simple boys that need love

“My Sweetest Tone”

New single “My Sweetest Tone” out now! 👉https://fanlink.tv/MST

About the song:

As an uneducated immigrant who came to this country with no money or knowledge of English in my teenage years, the US quickly showed me where my place is. The verses represent this sort of way of being mistreated and the chorus describes that no matter what life throws at me, I’ll always stand my ground and “carry on with my sweetest tone”.

“About two years ago, I moved from Brooklyn to Manhattan, after getting an opportunity to live in affordable housing. When I saw the studio apartment that I got, there was this closet that I immediately envisioned making a little recording studio, which was actually a bad idea, but I was too stubborn to change it since I already decided the album name was going to be called “Closet Leftovers”. Before I even started recording, I already made an album cover which is a picture of a little chair that I screwed into my wall and put my red hat in a doggie bag on top of the chair. I also put white duct tape with the name of the album and Tender Glue, which ended up invisible since I manipulated the picture with exposure afterwards. But if you look closely, you can still see it. It took almost the whole day to take that picture. So now about the recording and why it was a bad idea: Not only can you hear the high pitch static noise and interference in the monitors, you could also hear everything going on including the dishwasher or cell phones. I had to sit on the floor with the mic close to the ground to record vocals because it was the only place that the mic wouldn’t pick up those noises, which I later realized was caused by the electric panel and all the wires that were next to the closet. I tried different options to eliminate the noise but nothing worked.
Sometimes it could get claustrophobic and the lack of air didn’t help either, but my vision for the album kept me going.” – Tom Gluewicki 

“Rudy” Official Music Video

 

 

“Rudy” and three other singles from upcoming album called “Closet Leftovers” are now available to listen and download on all major stores!! –> http://hyperurl.co/RudySingle

“Rudy” was written about 6 years ago and was inspired by a girl I met once. I had chords and a melody written beforehand and the words came quickly to me. This girl had shown me how she rolls her cigarettes, which was inspiration for the lyrics “And if I go ; Roll one for me; Cigarettes you used to smoke; Hope you will quit”. Although some of the lyrics were based on real scenarios, the whole idea of the song is more of an imagination. I took some of the details of this brief non-intimate meeting and created a story. –> Press Release

Lyrics:

Oh Rudy in your eyes
Oh Rudy in your heart
Oh Rudy in you mind
Stay always on my side

And if I go
Roll one for me
Cigarettes you used to smoke
Hope you will quit
And if I die
Bury me so deep under all our lies
Hope you will quit

Oh Rudy talk to me
With your fluent Japanese
Oh Rudy in your mind
Stay always on my side

And if I go
Roll one for me
Cigarettes you used to smoke
Hope you will quit
And if I die
Bury me so deep under all our lies
Hope you will quit

Five minutes before going to work, I started playing my guitar and wrote down the lyrics, not really thinking about anything (I ended up almost late to work that day). Later on I realized that the part of the lyrics when I say “I’m so slow, I can barely see”, had to do with the time I lost partial vision for a moment, probably due to an unhealthy lifestyle. At that time in my life, I wanted to get healthier, so for me it’s about that. During the recording process, I sat down in my closet/recording studio, and started with vocals and guitar in the same take. Then I added the second guitar, drums, and bass. The whole process took a few days because I was only able to mix part of it when I had the time. Usually it was late, after work around 3am. –> Press Release

 

Lyrics:

Come walk to me
I’m so slow I can barely see
With you here
Feels like I’m in conscious dream

So stay with me
I’m ok I’ll always be
With you here
Feels like I’m in conscious dream

With you here

Tender Glue List-Stings

Reposted from The Wild Honey Pie written by Lauren Mckinney

Tender Glue is a brilliant clash of twang, grit and pop, delivering as many dirty guitar lines and perfectly sparse moments as clever vocals and catchy melodies. To celebrate the recent release of Steady Light, Tender Glue’s debut album, we asked for a playlist of songs that helped to define the record’s sound. Enjoy below, and be sure to check out Steady Light above!
