lyrics by joe kowalski this misfit horse was almost making off but sneaking through he soon was oddly caught i approach him with a zen-like calm the perfect slide undermined by a bovine photobomb i never saw the happy girlie come she came so fast left a mark and gone so moved was i that i wrote this song the perfect smile stars aligned in a bovine photobomb she must’ve known what she was doing she had perfect timing with her movements i wasn’t sure i had to ask the somm was it right to have some cote du rhone? but when it all was over, said, and done the love arrived obscure subsides with a bovine photobomb

about

Each song on this album was inspired by a specific internet meme involving an animal somewhere doing something human-like or wearing clothes not usually associated with the animal. Many ideas were given to me by our good friend Jenny down in Louisiana, USA.

If you buy the full album you also get the EXTENDED VERSION of "Cats On Leash"! Just saying.

about

onlyone Boston, Massachusetts

onlyone -- Joe Kowalski -- is hard to classify as a solo artist. As a sort of throwback to 70s era Brian Eno, onlyone traverses electronic/ proggy pop and ambient music and anything in between, playing all instruments and producing it all.

in 2018, onlyone releases his first French record, the reggae- and afropop-influenced Le Jeu Etendu Francais, with more music soon to come right behind.
