Galen Will “I’m Just Weird” coming May 28, release show May 31

Galen Will announces the release date for “I’m Just Weird,” a new personal anthem for whomever may need it.

It has been fourteen years since his first release, “Forces of Nature” (2012). Bassist Galen Will has now rebranded himself as a singer/songwriter, making a bold opening statement with “I’m Just Weird.”

The lyrics convey giddiness – “I’m just weird / as only I can be / and I feel free / because I’m just weird” – yet also gentleness: “It’s not always easy to do, so if you’re a weirdo too / I hope you never give up being strange.”

The music spans stylistic boundaries with acoustic and electric instruments. It features funky drums, energetic horns, and kaleidoscopic harmonies. Keyboard player Utar Artun contributes a suitably kinetic layer of electric piano. Galen unleashes a triumphant bass solo before the gentle third verse, culminating in a hurricane of a final chorus.

To make sure you don’t miss the release, subscribe to Galen Will’s email list. The song will be released on a short list of carefully selected platforms including BandCamp.com and YouTube.

A release show is planned for May 31 at Follow Your Art Community Studios in Melrose from 2-4pm, featuring Galen Will with a live band.
