Heartbeat slowing down Grey sky overhanging Their eyes upon my brow I hear them saying softly “Don’t let go of your pneuma. Don’t let go. You are meant to see the Gold Key Shore.” Oh maybe, maybe I’ll go... Laid down by the Nine Cool mists seeping deeper into the folds of my mind The crystals whisperin’ softly “Don’t let go of your pneuma. Don’t let go. You are meant to see the Gold Key Shore.” Oh maybe, maybe I’ll go... Maybe I’ll go The burning tincture trickles down my throat White razors descending The burning tincture trickles down my throat White razors rendering relief

Present List 03:56
I’m so tired of feeling so obsessed Drowning out in all I feel I’m so tired of trying to understand When it pains to understand And I’m so tired of playing middle man There it goes and comes again And I’m so tired of sleeping drunk alone Riding ever through the drone And watch over me Head down Head down And watch over me Head down Head down And watch I’m so tired of running from the sound When I turn around I’m numb I’m so tired of sleeping drunk alone Riding ever through the drone I’m so tired of following every word you say Archer tends to get it’s way And I’m so tired of living what I think Flying in the sky dries the ink And watch over me Head down Head down And watch over me Head down Head down And watch

Gratitude 03:47
We set our sights onto a vision Our patience was tried We cried and cried no more waiting All around temptation of diversion Climbing up the wall Only to rise or fall Must keep pushing Gratitude for you Hallelujah! We are undivided “Many lives, Many Masters” Every page to be turned Holding lessons best well learned and imprinted on me There is no time Only wisdom Gratitude for you Hallelujah! We are undivided Hallelujah! We are undivided

Lost in space Herein bearing a world in ruin To erase Life itself now depends on this Confusion Permeate everything around me My demon Down and wildly through it all Are you gone? From the ends away I realize that you are nothing more than a stone From the ends away even time concedes so I surrender to the void I suppose I could go I suppose I could go to the wild To the wild Lost in space To erase Confusion My demon

Along to move Along to see Along to do On to be Along to know Along to hail Along to grow On to set apart to be somewhat new Around the alpine And through the chrome Within the moment Till then it’s unknown Along to lose Along to dream Along to choose On to breathe Along to fail Along to wake On to take in everything Around the alpine And through the chrome Within the moment Till then it’s unknown Around the alpine And through the chrome Within the moment Till then it’s unknown

Moss Gardens 04:19
Met a man with a plan unbeknownst to me He had a house of treasures And the one that sticks out in my mind is a place of divine energy Let it flow through my whole... Moss gardens Take me back... Lay me down to the ground So soft and warm Safe and sound in the stubble of the Earth Stone pillars fill my eyes My soul begins to fly Further and further away from this place Yet closer to Grace I go Let it flow Through my whole being Moss gardens Feel it Hear it Open to the connection Bring me to the garden! Take me back...

Truth be alive and groomed today And it soothes my mind The demons have come in grace So pardon while I talk to this tree And hear it vocalizing shadowed life back at me I’m listening... Truth be alive and groomed today And it soothes my mind to know this to be true It’s so hypnotizing It’s got me quite confused What if it’s all a lie And I'm just dying? Truth hath arrived Come doom I’m listening... Truth be alive and groomed today Oh, the truth Truth be alive Truth hath arrived And it’s all a lie Truth hath arrived Come doom I’m listening...

Typical 03:46
It’s a typical wasteful morning Metaphorical bargain for life I’ll die, but there’s you It’s a typical day in the life It’s a tip to my darling good friend You’ll never die You’ll never end You’ll never end What’s become of this place? You know our greatest claim is left to flow like water under the bridge It’s such a shame Let freedom ring, you say? I haven’t heard that bell for a while Yeah, it’s been a while Yes, it’s been a while It’s been a while Turn this typical wasteful morning to an ornament garnished in light Take it in stride Tend to you Turn this typical wasteful morning to an ornament garnished in light Open your eyes You’ll never end You’ll never end
10.
Raven Stone 02:59
Raven Stone Nothing’s ever good or bad But thinking makes it so Lost in thought and armour clad You fight the raven Yonder vile under tones The overtones Yonder vile overtones And the undertones quake Lost in thought and armor clad You fight the raven stone You fight the raven stone Nothing’s ever good or bad But thinking makes it so Lost in thought and armour clad You fight the raven stone You fight the raven stone

about

Jester & Sage is the original music project by Ian & Dan. They are based in NYC and have been recording & creating together for 17 years. This acoustic demo features a selection of Ian & Dan’s favorite original compositions. It also showcases two covers each from the most iconic duos of rock and roll, a beautiful song from one of the first bands Ian & Dan ever bonded over, and a haunting version of a jazz standard.

This acoustic demo was recorded for twenty hours straight the evening of December 7th into the morning of December 8th (2021) in East Hampton, with final components recorded for another seven hours later that day (amounting to over 27 GB of raw audio). Ian & Dan set out to mix and master the music in time to be sent out for the holidays, but then they were both hit with COVID-19. Needless to say, a lot has tried to stop them from getting this to you, but here it is at last.
