“SCREWED BLUED n TATTOOED" finds Lefty Wright facing political uncertainty

It's hard to separate political frustration from daily life, especially when public events have people wondering what happens next. The feeling is channeled into blues with "SCREWED BLUED n TATTOOED," a song from Lefty Wright that draws from the reactions and anxieties surrounding the latest election cycle.

Wright taps into the moment's frustration with the emotive language of the blues. That is the song's view of the election's aftermath and his ongoing uncertainty about what comes next. It's about something we all know, and we see things happening in the public sphere. We become more and more involved in the consequences. Gradually.

The release is thus inspired by personal reaction, social observation, and a desire to express dissatisfaction. With "SCREWED BLUED n TATTOOED," Lefty Wright translates contemporary angst into a musical statement. It may be about a particular political moment, but its emotional basis transcends that setting, registering the uneasy relationship between public events and the people who are supposed to live with the consequences.
