☆ ☾ PLAYING PRETEND EP PLAYLIST (lyric video & audio): youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_lY6bIzAt96LKCk-fqnpyUpnV29LtbSkA0
The Encyclopedia Salesman is an imagined day in the life of a door-to-door salesman struggling to find his place and fulfill his purpose on the brink of the new millennium. I grew up sandwiched between the era of hardbound facts and digital information, but I spent many summers poring over my Childcraft and World Book volumes. There's a sense of security that comes with owning words on a page and knowing they'll never change. I think this song is a beautiful, melancholy narrative of finding a foothold through the passing of time. Track 4 of #PlayingPretendEP #ReeseLansangan
Playing Pretend in the Interim is a five-track EP of songs completed during isolation. This is both a writing experiment and an examination of the self as a human living with and for others. I wrote these songs from different perspectives and characters (an encyclopedia salesman, a long-gone celebrity, a haunting ghost...) - seeing hyper-specific experiences with borrowed eyes. It’s a combination of research, imagination, secondhand stories, histories, and things I've heard and witnessed along the way.
This EP is a way of escaping reality for a moment, allowing room for wonder and play. Enjoy your stay (and happy halloween!) 🎃👻
