Brian Dunne has released “I Watched The Light,” the latest single off his forthcoming album Clams Casino, available September 5 via Missing Piece Records (Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs). The song, features background vocals from his Fantastic Cat bandmates, and is the follow up t0 previous single “Clams Casino.”

Brian Dunne on “I Watched The Light”:

“I was talking to my bandmate about renting a car in Germany and said something like, ‘It was easier to do this when we were in Ohio!’ And he responded, ‘Ah man, after a while, it’s all Ohio.’ And I was like – I’m using that!’ I have a lot of fun writing these small stories that still feel broad. We imagine our dreams dying with this romantic, fated kiss on an airplane that’s about to crash. But a dream sort of slowly withers away. It erodes until it’s unrecognizable. This song is an amalgamation of a couple people I knew. I went to music school, and I watched a lot of people that it just didn’t take for. Outside of music, I feel like you see a dulling of people’s spark in your mid-30s. And it’s not an indictment of them. It’s an indictment of what the world will do to somebody with that look in their eye.”
