Influenced by D'Angelo, Bill Withers, Roy Ayers, The Meters, Erykah Badu. Quincy Flood grew up in Cairo, Illinois, a forgotten town where two great rivers meet. At 20, he packed his drum kit and drove west, trading the Mississippi's humid melancholy for the sun-bleached asphalt of Los Angeles. His music is the sound of that drive: deep-pocket funk grooves powered by a drummer's soul, with a falsetto that tells stories to his new California lover about a home she's never seen. These are songs about looking back from the fast lane, steeped in the heat lightning and cicada drone of a Midwestern summer.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You hold your thumb above the minus sign on his name.
3:13 AM, the blue light paints the dust on the window pane.
The hum from the A/C unit is a low, electric drone,
but you just hear cicadas, and you feel the coming cold front in your bones.

[Chorus]
And this is how the pressure drops,
you tell yourself, before the thunder starts.

[Verse 2]
He said, "Your town sounds like a sad story somebody told me once,"
as the 101 traffic burned like August on the riverfront.
The heat off the asphalt shimmered, made the air thick as a prayer,
and for a second, you forgot what city's grit was in your hair.

[Bridge]
That distant wail isn't a train, just a siren on Alvarado.
You erase the draft that says "The river's low this year, you know."

[Outro]
Just the hum.
And the glow.
