Once inside, no one will knock

Happy birthday to Dana Colley! Morphine’s sound wouldn’t be what it is without his masterful saxophone playing. We’re excited for everyone to hear Dana’s newly recorded parts on the upcoming album.

The loft was both Mark's home and studio where music was always happening, tape running, friends dropping by at all hours, lots of cooking. The lyrics speak to the joys of coming home to loved ones after months on tour.
