#1 DADS SHARES LATEST SINGLE 'ORION' GOLDEN REPAIR LP OUT MARCH 6 VIA PIEATER

The quiet achiever
The record holder
The cult favourite
The #1 Dad

Are you feeling confusion or pressure in your day-to-day? Unsure where life’s trajectory is hurtling you? #1 Dads’ new track 'Orion' lets you lay down your notions about what’s good and bad in your life.

Of the track, Tom Iansek remarks that "Orion is an invitation for quiet introspection, to feel whatever it is you're feeling, comfortable or uncomfortable".

The song is a triumph. From intricate beginnings, the track unfurls, until a chorus is there simply letting you know that “all of it is alright”. (You may recognize the voice of label-mate and regular collaborator Airling in there). Referencing the mundane and the metaphysical, both destruction and growth are ok.

'Orion' is the third single lifted from #1 Dads' recently announced third LP, Golden Repair, following earlier singles, 'Another Day' and 'Freedom Fighter'.

ORION LYRICS

I feel it in my brain
I feel it in my lungs
I feel it in my fingers they play
They play ‘til they’re done.

You can pick up the fight
You can set it alight
You can use all your might
All of it is alright.

I feel it my kitchen
I feel it in my car
I feel on my way to work
Everywhere that you are.

You can shout at the night
To your feeling’s delight
You can break all the pieces
All of it is alright
You can feel it inside
That everyone is a light
And every star here tonight
Every star is Orion’s.

I feel it in my garden
I feel it in my toes all spread
I feel in my legs they climb
They climb with no end.

You can roll in the shame
You can get in a funk
You can piss in the flames
All of it is alright
You can feel it inside
That everyone is a light
And every star here tonight
Every star is Orion’s

I’m moving through, I’m moving strange
All these feelings that I can’t explain
I’m filling up, I’m tearing down
I feel the changes they are all around
I’m moving through, I’m moving strange

You can pick up the book
You can pour out your heart
Every breath that you took
All of it is alright
You can feel it inside
That everyone is a light
And every star here tonight
Every star is Orion’s.
