Justin on the track “ An Alternate version of the song master is up wherever you stream. From a lyrical standpoint master is one of the most awkward and uncomfortable songs I’ve ever made. It’s written from the perspective of a naive teenager growing up in the rural south. Since the whole point of midnight noon was to push myself outside of my comfort zone I thought I might as well re examine the song that made me the most uncomfortable. This alternate version approaches the song from a completely different angle which I think, in some ways, clarifies the message.”
Midnight Noon is the debut album from Justin Giles Wilcox - best know as chief songwriter in Nassau & now defunct band Moonlight Bride. Monteagle, named for a mountain in Justin's home state and with a full band supporting has emerged as his main creative focus. The record is a collection of songs written about growing up in rural Tennessee, moving to New York City and looking back at the once discarded landscape with a deeper understanding and appreciation of rural America's hidden beauty. The album envelops a slow focus, working in honest observations and simple truths. It's an origin story sonically toying with Americana and Folk and placing it in a more urban, textural context. Written, recorded and produced by Justin Giles Wilcox and mastered by Doug Van Sloun (Bright Eyes, Songs: Ohia, M. Ward)
