Floating 04:07
Floating in my head Yes, I’m just floating in my head The days walk, by where have they wondered to? Trying to keep pace with the passing air Sitting behind my eyes Yes, I’m just sitting behind my eyes Ever gradual drip of this faucet Holding on to a handful of water Without you I don’t know what I do The days walk by, where have they wondered to? Trying to keep pace with the passing wind Ever gradual drip of this faucet Holding on to a handful of water

Sits a Broom 04:47
Sits a broom Free of thoughts, I assume Wish I could too Wish I could too But you'll find That you can't get behind Sits a crow Not employed, that I know Wish I could too Wish I could too But you'll find That you can't get behind

Barrel forwards where? Time kept at it, in that stare The future, as it appeared But how did we get here? A shelf only if it stores A purpose but what for? The future, as it appeared But how did we get here?

All of my friends I’m in search of again A lonesome stroll through the day If I noticed it that way In a museum of other peoples lives In route home to describe All of my friends I’ve come looking for again

Devours 05:30
A field painted in flowers Before next season devours Where have you gone when you die? A blank canvas to fill Two mountains on a hill Where have you gone when you die?

about

Carl and the Uncertainties was created with the aim to rectify the difference between two of my previous disparate musical outlets: songwriting and ambient music. It was an effort to create the space where they could meet and coexist together. Composed of super slow pop songs some of which devolve out of song structure, juxtaposed with more abstract compositions, the focus is on tone, textures, and vibe. It’s psychedelic, sparse, and intimate.

Carl and the Uncertainties Portland, Oregon

Person and/or band. So far pretty slow songs and ambient instrumentals. Hopefully keeping the vibe right, but perhaps it's too slow for you?
