Wake up in some fauna By a golden pond Hey Mike, your bong’s got resin Bake up in the morning And you can’t get on It’s like a song you’re singin’ You try to be the bomb But you just get drunk It’s all in the way you bring it I’m spinnin’ and I’m sinnin’ And I can’t move on Just like the dope you’re doin’ There’s cocoa on the sideboard Help yourself (I want to be found) Marshmallows in a bowl If you wanna spoon ‘em in (Hush don’t make a sound) And it’s all in my mind That I’ve left you far behind Yeah it’s all in my mind In my mind Shake up in the sauna With a magic wand Smoke while the tea is brewin’ Bake up in the mornin’ And you can’t get on It’s like a song you’re singin’ I’m spinnin’ and I’m sinnin’ And I can’t move on Just like the dope you’re doin’ It numbs you to the point Where you’re so long gone You’ll never know the pain I’m bringin’ There’s cocoa on the sideboard Help yourself (I want to be found) Take a side of ginger With my salt (Hush don’t make a sound) And it’s all in my mind That I’ve left you far behind Yeah it’s all in my mind In my mind

Saffron Mix tape A pot of tea Supper's on Record plays The oboe solo From Nightswimming Snow falls Quietly Outside Firelight flickers Your lips brush mine The careless Caress Of the beautiful Mess People make When their eyes Go dreamy O Hazlewood pines O silver sky O winter moon Crisp cold and high Come on summer soon And kiss this frozen heart Goodbye Lonesome train Whistle blows The Leafs And the Sens O the Flames And the Oil Hockey night For lonely hearts On mountainsides Big Star's on And supper's on Some velvet morning These boots Will be walking Back into Trouble's Lonesome town O Hazlewood pines O sliver sky O winter moon Crisp cold and high Come on summer soon And kiss this frozen heart Goodbye Kiss this frozen heart Goodbye

Josephine 04:46
Josephine Star of stage and screen Won’t you meet me At the Coke machine Josephine Eyes of jade green Sneakers of teal And aqua marine Josephine I have to know On who would you Your love bestow? Smokey Bordeaux Snowy chateau Would you be keen To get to know? Oh how serene love could be If you’d let it grow Josephine Oh how serene love could be If you’d let it grow Josephine Josephine Sleek as a magazine Effervescent As a Halloween Josephine Cool as Steve McQueen Bright as a siren On a wine-dark screen Josephine I have to know On who would you Your love bestow? Smokey Bordeaux Snowy chateau Would you be keen To get to know? You’re the queen Of my heart o True blue to you Until you go Oh how serene love would be If you’d let it grow Josephine Oh how serene love would be If you’d let it grow Josephine Oh how serene love would be If you’d let it grow Josephine Oh how serene love would be If you’d let it grow Josephine

Sylvan Song 03:10
Midnight midnight Won’t you take my hand Midnight midnight I’m a broken man Midnight midnight Take me dark and deep Midnight midnight No hope of sleep I thought I saw you Through my window Dark eyes twinkling On the lawn I thought I heard you Sing a sylvan song For waking up the dawn O A sylvan song A sylvan song For waking up the dawn Dark green forest Won’t you take me down Dark green forest Without a sound Dark green forest What is that I see? Black eyes sparkle in Front of me I wandered in The forest deep I heard a sound I turned around There was a wolf With shining eyes Lit by a moonbeam From the skies A moonbeam from The skies A wolf with shining eyes Midnight You call unto me Seduce me So sweetly Midnight Your tendrils touch me Wrap me up In a silver memory Midnight You call unto me Seduce me So sweetly Midnight Your tendrils touch me Wrap me up In a silver memory

Only you can play Linus and Lucy On dulcimer With your toes Couscous, lime Blue paprika Orange crush lover I’m in your throes Every time Your booty calls I answer it In my dark You are the only Candle lit But nothing’s Gonna fix our love Not even A sad pop song ‘Cause our love is broke Stars spoke We awoke To a love that’s broke Follow me down To the trees again Where the Lemon sky Shines upon our skin yeah Follow me down To the almond trees and Soak the river in When I see Your azure eyes I dance a lot Be my Sweet Heart I’ll be your Sir Lancelot But nothing’s Gonna fix our love Not even a sad pop song ‘Cause our love is broke Pop a coke Light a smoke ‘Cause our love is broke Follow me down To the trees again Where the Lemon sky Shines upon our skin yeah Follow me down To the almond trees and Soak the river in Walk Softly Talk Softly So they don’t hear Hold me honey Hold me baby Hold me near I want you to know

I’m in the dark here Right in the park near The Second Cup I got a jazz pop I’m goin’ nonstop Come on and pick me up I wanna get to The place you gone to With eyes aglow I got a feelin’ You stopped believin’ Long time ago Breathe it in The cold air Crystal out Cuddle up Before you Cuss me out Feelin’ frozen Put your Parka on Kiss And make up Up until The dawn I’d love to see you Would you see me too? I’d love to see you It’s been a long time girl I’d love to see you We could grab a beer We could – we could – we could - For old time’s sake Or if you want to Let’s grab a coffee From Cherry Bomb You like your French press I like your red dress You got the sugar In your palm Hey remember Our trip to Jasper In the Aerostar And we listened To Joy Divison Love Will Tear Us Apart I’d love to see you Would you see me too? I’d love to see you It’s been a long time girl I’d love to see you We could grab a beer We could – we could – we could For old time’s sake Baby I don’t wanna lose you Baby I don’t wanna lose you Again Again

Gold Star 03:06
O Witness My solitude O Witness The depth of my soul And all that it takes To fill it Could be Destroyed In minutes Pour a couple shots Of whiskey baby Then kiss and say goodbye To me O witness The quality Of the sunlight On the wall As we lay here Upon your bed Your lips A strawberry red Pull yourself Together You say to me As I smash another TV In the final false start Of a change of heart There is no relief In the final false start Of a change of heart Ain’t never gonna be No relief Pour a couple shots Of whiskey baby Then kiss and say goodbye To me Did you get what you wanted? Did you get what you wanted o Did you get what you wanted? Did you get what you wanted o

I can’t go on I’ll go on forever I’ll count upon Some rich endeavor Now watch me explode Into a blinding globe Of incandescent light Like a midnight flight Of dynamite Igniting bright I can’t go on I’ll go on forever (Everybody knows me up ‘til now) I’ll count upon Your tight black leather (O you tie me up so hard somehow) Now watch the percolation Of the sensation Blow a hole up in the sky All the more to Sigh and cry With starlight In our eyes In our eyes In our eyes The brighter the burn The greater the flamin’ out The greater the flamin’ out The brighter the burn The greater the flamin’ out Now watch me explode Into a blinding globe Of incandescent light Now watch me explode Into a blinding globe Of incandescent light Now watch me explode Into a blinding globe Of incandescent light Like a midnight flight Of dynamite Igniting bright Br-ight Br-ight Br-ight Br-ight I can’t go on (He can’t go on) I can’t go on (He can’t go on) I can’t go on (He can’t go on) I can’t go on (He can’t go on)

Celina 03:49
In one year She’d changed so much New eyeshadow Sadder smile She still listens To Kurt Weill And loves her Bertolt Brecht You bet Had lunch At Soup n’ Such Then went And we got wrecked Hey Celina Dry your eyes (Dry your eyes Celina) Smile To your heart’s delight (To your heart’s delight Celina) Look how bright The stars tonight In the endless Prairie skies Let fear Go out of your Sweet heart tonight Hey Celina don’t cry Celina don’t cry You’ll be smiling Some day soon I spy reflected in your Dreamer’s eye The moon And though the clouds May roll in When you wake up Tomorrow Out in the rain-covered world Our shivers turn Into fog Out in the rain-covered world Our shivers turn Into fog Out in the rain-covered world Our shivers turn Into fog Out in the rain-covered world Our shivers turn Into fog

about

Hazlewood Pines draws equally from pop and roots music. Ethan’s melodies are steeped in pastoral acoustic aesthetics, and topped with bright layers of counterpoint. His lyrics are embedded with vibrant imagery, intricate rhyming, and a quirky sense of humour.

Produced by Lorrie Matheson at his Arch Audio studio in Calgary, Hazlewood Pines features a stellar lineup of collaborators - from the soaring violin of Laura Reid to the sublime drumming of Chris Dadge. Acoustic guitar provides the foundation for sparkling flourishes of lead guitar, dexterously provided by Lawrence Nasen and James Dangerous.

As sung by Ethan and guest vocalist Dolly Sillito, these are songs that compel you to come on in, help yourself to a beverage ... then stay awhile, and listen.
