“Epilogue” sounds like a farewell to something, to a period in one’s life, to a place where you made a lot of memories, to the ways of being and living that went along with that time and that context that seemed to anchor your existence but which can come apart so seemingly easy when life’s demands or unexpected circumstances provoke the change hit. The image in the lyrics “take down the drawings and pull out the tacks” is so poignant to anyone who has spent time being creative alone and harboring some of your work to yourself whether in college or living in some unglamorous apartment that served its purpose and seemed like home. The song by Tallahassee, Florida group bandanna begins in a wistful, introspective manner but in the last third or so of the song the energy amps up and the volume swells dramatically in a gesture of the final goodbye to your old life and outmoded attachments on your way to the next chapter and recognizing that what seemed to be the defining adventure and phase of your life for so long was exactly that. Listen to “Epilogue” on Spotify and look for bandanna’s album uncertain/ty to be released through Cat Family Records in 2020.
