Nina Jo Smith - Clarion Alley

1. “Clarion Alley” (Nina Jo Smith Redwood River Music (BMI))
Slightly spooky lyrics contrast with lighthearted music in 3/4 time
A surrealistic postcard from a mural-covered alley in San Francisco’s storied Mission District. Written on my first bicycle outing after lockdown ended. Depicts the feeling of just starting to poke my head into the light as the darkness of lockdown began to lift.
