about

Celebrated Melbourne polymath Braille Face returns. Part force of nature, part studio wizard, his genre-shifting pop songs glide from moody electronics to soaring indie rock. He combines polished production with a rare depth of songwriting - always with his stunning voice soaring above.

On "You, Tornado" he wraps colourful layers of energetic indie pop around lyrics that explore the visceral & confusing nature of internal turmoil. It sets the stage for his new album due in September, the long-awaited follow-up to his cult debut album Kōya released back in 2016.

lyrics

Down low
I glide through all waves
I’ve found outlines of shadows
In my loneliness, I dug a way out
And you come cut from
The ones who show you

How

Down low
I slide through errors
I’m put by you, tornado
There’s no feeling when I’m sleeping
And I am nothing more than the ones who showed me

How

I want the coming down
(So I can finally breathe)
I want the coming down
(So I can finally breathe)
I want the coming down
(So I can finally breathe)
I want the coming down
(So I can finally breathe)

There’s a place I go to level with myself
In a tower overlooking nothing else
I will hide here when the trees they hollow out
I never knew love until I saw you for myself
Has it asked you in the middle of the night?
Has it shaken all the stars from out’ your sky?
I supposed you’d be the author of your life
But reading it now I wish I’d stopped once in a while
I never knew love until I saw you for myself
