Ocean Eyes Track by Track:

Cave In is about the “great unknown” and constantly wondering about what else lies out there, what adventures are waiting to be had, what dreams may come. It’s about striving for endurance and integrity The Bird and the Worm is a little song about an incredibly romantic bird and worm and the idea of the world being FULL of friends, even under the sea. It’s about relationships that are too good to be true. Hello Seattle is a song about growing up in Minnesota, imagining what the city of Seattle was like without having visited. It’s about daydreams and imaginings where you are things that dwell in/around the Emerald City, thus giving the listener a first person view. Umbrella Beach is about a hermit living in a box car on the edge of the shoreline that corroded so badly, it wound up at the bottom of the bay. Rather than finding a new home, the hermit chooses to learn to scuba dive and now spends his days deep under the waves in his boxcar. The Saltwater Room is about swimming class in junior high. Dental Care is about people all over the world riding in cars on the way to the dentist and that queasy feeling that inevitably ensues. Meteor Shower is about my faith, the reason I do what I do, and most importantly, the One I cling to with all strength and vigor that is left in me. On The Wing is about jumping off the peaks of mountains and taking flight. Fireflies is a little song about bugs and not being able to fall asleep at night. The Tip of the Iceberg is a song about growing up wishing you were somewhere else and suddenly realizing you’ve wasted a good piece of your life. It’s about learning not to take things for granted. Vanilla Twilight is a song about a girl. Tidal Wave is about running hard and racing for the prize with both eyes locked on the finish line so that one day, the words “Well done, good and faithful servant” might be heard. — Adam Young

Happy 10th Anniversary!

july 5th // happy birthday adam!

Maybe people think I’m this incredibly bubbly, happy guy with no problems and it’s pretty much the opposite – not that I’m a dark guy. My music sounds particularly optimistic because I am sort of a quiet, reserved, really introverted guy who has a lot of darkness behind it. That’s my way of tapping into that and dealing with life. I like to think of music as a way of escaping from reality, so the opposite of my reality is this beautiful place. I like to go there, and come back from there.
