Influenced by Sly & the Family Stone, Funkadelic, War, The Isley Brothers, Shuggie Otis. Sly Stoney was named after a funk legend by his parents, a fact that has haunted him ever since. After dropping out of an Urban Planning program at UC Davis, he moved back to his native West Oakland with a mountain of student debt, a 1972 fuzz bass, and an oversized houseplant named Larry. His music is the sound of that decision: paranoid, joyful, deeply funky, and wrestling with the feeling of being the only one in his family who chose art over a career path. These are anthems for the gloriously uncertain.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
At the Royal Cleaners on 7th and Clay
Her one copper key makes the afternoon sway
Tracin' the teeth with a painted-black thumb
Readin' the frequency where the signal comes from

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm caught in the feedback, the low-level room hum
Wonderin' what kinda current you've become

[Chorus]
That one copper circuit you keep on a string
Is it a weapon, a memory, or a beautiful thing?

[Verse 2]
The air in here smells of bleach and burnt coffee
She taps out a rhythm on the Formica, softly
Then the phone to her ear, says "I know, I know, I know it's a lot"
A closed-system whisper before the beat drops

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm caught in the feedback, the low-level room hum
Wonderin' what kinda current you've become

[Chorus]
That one copper circuit you keep on a string
Is it a weapon, a memory, or a beautiful thing?

[Bridge]
The whole damn city's wired to blow
And you're the only channel I don't know

[Outro]
She pockets the key and the screen just goes snow.
