Dent May Drops “I’ll Be Stoned For Christmas”

Dent May Drops the single "I'll Be Stoned For Christmas," Dent May will play his next show 12/31 in Oxford, Miss

Dent May has shared a new Christmas song, “I’ll Be Stoned For Christmas,” just in time for the holiday season. The song was produced by Cole Furlow of Dead Gaze at his house in Oxford, MS and is inspired by partying with old friends on Christmas night after the family festivities have wrapped up.

Warm Blanket is the third album from Mississippi songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer Dent May. Recorded in solitude in a reportedly haunted Victorian house by the bay in St. Augustine, Florida, the album arrives just barely a year after the release of his previous LP, Do Things.

Dent’s Warm Blanket is another kaleidoscopic odyssey through the restless musical mind of a DIY pop auteur. He played almost all of the instruments on the album, making use of the house’s antique grand piano and recruiting Florida locals to fill in on horns, strings, and pedal steel guitar.

The result is an album of existential pop, psychedelic funk, and melancholy soul with soaring arrangements ripped from the pages of classic American songwriting. Lyrically, Dent investigates life’s timeless mysteries, touching on youth, mortality, alienation, and unrequited love with startling honesty and humor.
