Beloved Binge

"…upbeat, stripped-down and muffed-out indie-pop rock.Taking turns strumming, humming and drumming (while swiping pages from the K Records playbook) Rob Beloved and Eleni Binge conjure up happy memories of indie rock’s fun-loving and far less pretentious past.” --Colorado Springs Independent Their 7th studio release Godwit--named after the bird who eats its organs to enable its extensive migration--explores whether we tiny creatures navigating a world beyond our control can (rather than devouring the world for pleasure) find internal sustenance to sustain our individual and collective migrations. Their new single, Awaiting Your Arrival for the Journey, builds on three decades of Aikido practice by its primary songwriter Rob Beloved, where he explains his attempts to sit (meditate) and work through illusions of himself and others. What is our small place in a vast world that outlasts us? The song also explores joy and the happy release of our own limiting preconceived notions of who we or others should be. What kind of trip can we take if we free ourselves from expectations?
