Description:

John Carroll Kirby's new album Blowout was written on a recent stay in Puerto Viejo, Costa Rica. Between 5am wake-up calls from oropendola birds and psychedelic sunsets, he wrote Blowout, inspired by the local people, music and nature. Though its songs are joyful, that joyfulness is tinged with melancholy. Kirby says, â??Blowout is about enjoying yourself even though life is tough, before the candle blows out.â? Kirby says, â??The oropendola is a very cool bird that lives in a sac-like hanging nest. There was a tree full of them outside where I stayed that woke me up every morning at 5 am, so I had to write a song about them.â? The album was finished upon Kirbyâ??s return to Los Angeles with a stripped-down band at 64 Sound Studios. Blowout sways between the titleâ??s two definitions â?? a moment of destruction and one big party. While writing the album, Kirby thought of episodes of collective madness or delusion, like Fyre Festival and the Heavenâ??s Gate cult. The album imagines â??a festival where everyone gets beamed up to utopia or heaven instead of starving or dying unfulfilled.â? Kirby says, â??Iâ??m trying to use imagination in music to create my own myths, and keep things playful and funny and not too sanctimonious.â? -
