Bison Hip - This Old City

Album: Older Stronger Better | Website: | Lyrics: I watch the people walking blindly through their lives From this rainy café window where I’m just marking time The ghosts of the river set sail and the art of the subway tells the tale Of my broken heart I let the pain, pain, pain Get washed by the rain, rain, rain Of this old city I see the old man, he’s been around here for some time He has no regrets here, his place is marked here in kind The ships on the river set sail and the art of seduction tells the tale Of my broken heart I let the pain, pain, pain Get washed by the rain, rain, rain Of this old city Take a look at yourself, we come together in this life No more walking alone, we’re all just marking time The ghosts of the river set sail and the art of the subway tells the tale Of my broken heart I let the pain, pain, pain Get washed by the rain, rain, rain Of this old city Paul Sloway/John Gilmour Smith 2022 “No Spring Bad Thing“ – Blues in Britain Following on from 2 tremendously well-received EP releases, Bison Hip return with their upcoming album, ’Older Stronger Better’, featuring the singles ’Doghouse ’ & ’Stronger’. ’We’ve been working towards this album since we formed during the lockdown’ explains vocalist Paul. Formed by long-time friends during a lockdown Zoom call in 2020, 4 of the 5 members are over 50. “We wanted the album to reflect where we are in our lives, we’re definitely getting on a bit, but life experience has made us stronger than ever, and I think we’re on top of our game“. Continuing the ethos of real songs played by real musicians, the album is filled with those life experiences. ’The songs are full of pain, loss, failure, disappointment, but also joy, excitement, and lots of hope. We’re getting older, but the best years aren’t behind us, they’re still to come, and we wanted that feeling in the music’. The band are looking forward to an exciting year, with live shows across the UK. ’We’re ready to get out there and show people what we’re all about’ adds Paul. ’It’s taken us a long time to get here, we’ve arrived fashionably late, but the wait has been worth it’. A collection of powerful songs, telling real stories, forged in the band’s hometown of Glasgow, ’Older Stronger Better’ announces the complete arrival of Bison Hip as a unique blues rock band ready to make their mark. 🎧 Don’s Tunes is about the music.
