    Thomas Truax is a unique performer, and already justly appreciated as a treasure live. Sonic Dreamer may just have the wit, invention and accessibility to be the album that garners him that same recognition as a recording artist." -Drowned In Sound

lyrics

We come together it's an elevated train and that's a fine place to be
She's got me singing like a little tweety bird at the top of a cuckoo tree

It's all happening now
Hang on to your hats

Magpie flies with silver dollar, hole in pocket starts to holler "In this dark I'm blind!"
The room is warm and buzzin' tell me are we really cousins? I don't mind if you don't mind
Hey have you ever had a little voice way deep inside you screamin '"Dear God help me out!"?
It's not a noble remedy the dope the doctor gives me but I'm different than I thought
Not always like I want to be sometimes I'm different than I thought
(Chorus)
This sea of Derby chimneys looks just like a cemetery, wonder who lives underground
Blue lights flicker madly as it turns 'em into zombies they don't move or make a sound
But somethin's 'bout to happen there's a whistlin' and a cracklin' and the whole town's blown a fuse!
And gradually the families start emerging from their dormantories settin' up the barbecues
(Chorus)

Thomas Truax Birmingham, UK

"Thomas Truax crafts rich, poetically evocative songs about insects, trees, technology, and a lifelong obsession with all things lunar. He travels the world performing with his "band" of bizarre self-made instruments including a motorized drum machine made with bike wheels and a souped-up Gramophone called 'The Hornicator', as well as his venerable guitar 'Hank'.
