Librarian/
guitarist from
Atlanta,
Georgia, Dolph Chaney released his first and so far, only album,
New Bird Rise, in the
winter of
1998.
With varied influences ranging from Robyn Hitchcock to XTC to Stereolab, Dolph's music is truly diverse. It does not depend on musical gimmickery to impress the listener. The songs are simple and strong, with soul-searching lyrics.
There are fun songs,too ... like Ocean ...
You are ocean
You are ocean
A brand of salt water nasal spray ....
-
You clear my eyes
You clear my nose
but you burn my eyes and rot my stomach away ...
And one of my favorites - Miss You
I throw a rock at your head
But I miss you
I throw a rock at your head
But I miss you
And I'll keep missing you ... until the end of time
