For this week's episode, I've included snippets from upcomingThirteenth Hour soundtrack tracks. I recently wrote an untitled piano theme that I was thinking would become an introspective musical track on the soundtrack. There's a preview of it in its infancy onInstagram. Then, about two weeks ago, I toyed with the idea of turning it into a ballad with words. Once I got to thinking about it, lyrics came to me in the span of a few minutes and became the song featured in this episode, which I finally titled, "Love, Grey Dresses, and Other Things." There's a a snippet of the final instrumental version and a live performance on the piano included as well.

Still haven't transcribed the lyrics onto the computer. The most I had at the time when the muse hit were a few pieces of scrap paper, so that's what this "final" version is written on.

The song is written from the perspective of Logan, the main character ofThe Thirteenth Hour, as he realizes that the friendship he with Aurora, his childhood friend, has changed for both him and her.

Final versions of this song, both in instrumental and lyrical versions, can be found in the near future on theBandcamp soundtrack page.

As always, thanks for listening!
