Today we are pleased to present the latest offering from the Rhode Island-based art rock collective known as\u00a0The Pull of Autumn<\/strong><\/a>. Their single\u00a0‘Live Today’<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0is a joint collaboration with Tokyo dreamgaze band\u00a0Once Grace Forever<\/strong><\/a>, a beautiful offering that goes hand in hand with an intriguing video created by\u00a0Rosie Varela\u00a0<\/strong>of acclaimed shoegaze band\u00a0EEP<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This comes on the trail of the lead track – ‘Outlaw Empire’<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>featuring The Pop Group<\/strong><\/a> legend Mark Stewart<\/strong><\/a> and bassist Doug Wimbish<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>(Living Colour, Tackhead<\/strong>, The Rolling Stones, Sugarhill Gang<\/strong>), which is remixed by legendary producer Adrian Sherwood<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This song celebrates living in the now and enjoying each day as it unfolds. Its rhythm gently unfolds into an anthem of soft lifting sound,” says Daniel Darrow<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It was exciting to work with much younger musicians on this track as it helps build bridges musically from artists who span across generations to find a community bond in the craft of songwriting and musical production.”      <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a never-ending search reaching every corner of the world, The Pull of Autumn’s architect Daniel Darrow<\/strong> came across Once Grace Forever while listening to independent radio. Preliminary contact, mutual admiration and talks of collaboration ultimately culminated in this song with Darrow giving it a dream-pop feel by slowing the song down and adding light synth textures and long harmonic trails to the body.      <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These initial tracks preview the band’s fourth album ‘Beautiful Broken World’<\/strong><\/a>, an ambitious 15-track undertaking that began in early 2020 and involves a number of iconic artists, including Philip Parfitt <\/strong>of The Perfect Disaster, Stuart Moxham<\/strong> of Rough Trade postpunk band Young Marble Giants<\/strong>, Luke Skyscraper James<\/strong> of I.R.S. recording artist FASHION<\/strong> and John Neff<\/strong>, who has contributed to multiple David Lynch<\/strong> films and is also a member of David Lynch\u2019s Blubob<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Pull of Autumn is a \u2018super group\u2019 of sorts, with songs orbiting around Rhode Island artist Daniel Darrow of Johanna\u2019s House of Glamour<\/strong><\/a> and involving numerous emerging and notable musicians from the local music scene and further abroad. The band’s debut 2018 eponymous album<\/strong><\/a> was followed by ‘Afterglow’<\/strong><\/a> in 2019 and <\/strong>‘Small Colors’<\/strong><\/a> in 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of November 15, ‘Live Today’ will be available across online stores and streaming platforms like Apple Music<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>and <\/strong>Spotify<\/a> <\/strong>(where ‘Outlaw Empire’ can also be found), as well as Bandcamp<\/strong><\/a>, where the ‘Beautiful Broken World’ LP (out on December 9) is now available for pre-order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
