about
This is AKUDAMA's 5th installment of our Free EP of the Month series here at Bandcamp.
"Barbershop"* is a look back at Blake's childhood, specifically recalling his first haircut ("When I was young my mom liked David Bowie / So my first haircut looked like David Bowie's / All the girls just loved me, I was only 3!"). The cover art is actually a photograph of Blake getting his first haircut! This song has existed for quite some time, and was finally recorded in Brooklyn in 2009.
"Camera Girl"* (featuring Gina Cimelli of Gina's Picture Show) is a quirky song, essentially about a girl running away ("I cut your hair off when you were sleeping / You didn't like that, so now you're leaving"). This was written during our Johnny Appleseed barn sessions in the summer of 2007, and re-recorded in Brooklyn in 2009.
Enjoy!

One day, a guava made love to a banana, and an avocado was born. Upon the avocado's first attempt at rolling, it was squashed. With the cracking of its pit came the most magnificent sound, so fiercely exasperating that it caused the banana to kill the guava, make a boat out of it, and sail to America to start a rock band called Acucumba... which sounds strikingly similar to "AKUDAMA". ... more

Movin' on up
I'm movin' on up
I'm moving back down
When I was young my mom loved David Bowie
So my first haircut looked like David Bowie's
All the girls just loved me, I was only three
Come inside the barber shop
Come along with me
Going to the barber shop with you, oh baby, you oh baby
We can do your hair up like miss Norma Jean's
Come inside the barbershop come along with me
You look so good - Track Name: Camera Girl

T took your picture
With my automa-
tic tic tic camera
But you ran away, whoa
Where are you going?
You can't leave
"Watch me," she said
Please don't go
I cut your hair off
When you were sleeping
You didn't like that
So now your leaving, whoa
