about

“Living in London can sometimes be a bit grey. I wanted to write a track that reminds us that it doesn’t matter how much it rains or how many grey hairs you see in the mirror, if you play your favourite music you can always escape to that special place.

Musically, I wanted to start the record with two sounds that are my favourite in the genre - vocal harmonies and Rhodes piano. Hooligan Horns did an amazing job on this one. Leo Richardson’s solo is an absolute killer.”

lyrics

They’re trying to get me
Trying to start a fight
But nothing they call me
Can stop me feeling alright

Hole in my roof
Couple of greys showing through
But I’ve got a feeling
You know what I’m going through

Don’t look down no-one to protect you
Left behind but I won’t forget you
All these things we worry about
It’s just a waste of time

When I’m riding the wave
There’s no-one to stop me
Sun’s shining today
Just here in my car
When the rain begins to start
I open my heart and the beach doesn’t seem so far

Rain on my window
Beach in heart
Pina coladas
And convertible cars

Can’t slow down cuz we’re on the highway
Too late now, we’re doing it my way
All these things we worry about
It’s just a waste of time

When I’m riding the wave
There’s no-one to stop me
Sun’s shining today
Just here in my car
When the rain begins to start
I open my heart and the beach doesn’t seem so far

Miles London, UK

Miles is the solo project of Adam Amer. Music made for the car stereo - top down, sun shining. Created in London over two years, ‘Riding the Wave’ is a love letter to the golden era of soft-rock. With soaring harmonies, super-tight horns and smooth chord changes, Adam called on the best players in London to create an album that sounds like it was stolen from your dad’s record collection. ... more
