about

** Watch the video --> bit.ly/3P4PGWK

Aside from being a brilliant human and drummer, Joanna is a formidable songwriter and a legitimate night owl. She stays up for the sunrise most nights and is a sort of custodian of the night while others are asleep. She might be curating the museum of her house, working on a craft, or playing drums for one of the many bands of Winnipeg.

This is her debut song with Leaf Rapids, and we are over the moon to be a part of it.

lyrics

I wake the birds
I send them off into that day
Make sure the sun’s up
Making the rounds in any way
After the nightshift
I turn the stars off one by one

I leave the moon
She’s a wily satellite
Love in the darkness
Sneaking out into the light
Even the nightshift
Is bound to catch a glimpse of sun

Wednesday morning will always be
Tuesday night to me

My quiet industry
In the hours that memories keep
The fox and owl agree
The darkest hours are not for sleep
Here on the night shift
We tuck the days in one by one

Wednesday morning will always be
Tuesday night to me
