Ladies and Gentlemen, it is our great pleasure to present to you…a song! Now, I know what you’re thinking…”This can’t be true, can it?” “This band routinely waits six, seven, even eight years between releases and they just released a single a couple years ago!” (“The Shine On Single” on 7” vinyl via @littlecloudrecords and on all the digi platforms if you missed it). Well friends, it’s the truth. It’s the “Love, Light, Beauty & Truth” to be exact and It’s the first of a handful of songs that we’ll be releasing on the 15th of every month through the end of the year, from a collection of material that was recorded in the spring of 2019. We figured we’d better tide ya’ll over for a spell while we finish mixing this Shangri-La record. Hope ya like it! 

Love, 
The Davidians

Starting July 15th, we'll be releasing a brand-new single every month, each one pulled from sessions we recorded back in 2019. These songs have been waiting a long time to be heard, and we're excited to finally share them with you.

Every release will also have its own accompanying video, and each song will be available on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Amazon Music, and all major streaming platforms.

We can't wait for you to hear what we've been holding onto all these years.

Love, 

The Davidians

   Steeped in the aura of the perennially mythologized psychedelic culture of Southern California, The Stevenson Ranch Davidians has, since 2006, revealed itself in shifting configurations; making music influenced by the timeless essence of ‘60s psych, folk and soul, woven with strands of early American roots music. While the lineup has continually coalesced around lead singer and songwriter Dwayne Seagraves, the collective has always had a guiding vision and goal: to create music that seeks to simultaneously demystify and deify the human experience. 

     The other members bring a range of talent, experience and inspiration to The Stevenson Ranch Davidians’ sound. In addition to founding member and Davidians’ bassist, Jessica Latiolait, the band includes producer and long time Brian Jonestown Massacre member Rob Campanella on guitar and lap steel. On drums is Misha Bullock, the sole Englishman in the fold and composer by day. The newest edition to the collective is Sara Minsavage on keyboards, shakes and jangles.

     After releasing their third LP, Amerikana, in 2017 the band embarked on two extensive European tours in 2018 and 2019 while also recording what will be their fourth full length collection of songs. In early 2020 the band began a monthly residency in the Bay Area until being forced into an indefinite hiatus due to various governmental mandates during the Covid outbreak.

     In the summer of 2023 the band reemerged to work on the finishing touches of their latest recordings with plans to jump back into the live music circuit and release a record in 2024.  

I wrote and recorded this demo in 2013. In fact, it's one of only two songs I wrote between 2010 and 2016. Seemed apropos in these strange times so I hope it makes ya feel alright. ❤️✳️

Baby, if the world should ever end will you stay with me til then? Will I still be your man? 

Baby, I know you think I’m crazy but I can’t help how I feel. This is all just too real. 

Every time I look around, I see everything. My eyes are open wide.Life is not a dream. 

Oh baby, when it all hits the fan, you know you can depend on me, right then. 

Baby, I know we’ll be alright. By the gun and the knife, I’ll be sure we survive. 

Everywhere you look today, you see The State. We can’t ignore the endless wars, what might be our fate. 

Oh Honey, they could destroy our money. I know you think that’s funny but it has happened before. 

Baby, all the things I’ve put away, we can barter and trade for the things we can’t make. 

Every time I talk this way, you turn away. You can have my silver and gold if you’ll just stay. 

Oh, don’t go. Please just stay. Don’t go away. 

Oh baby, If they ever drop the bomb, we’d both be safe from harm, in a hole in the yard. 

Baby. If it all comes to an end, I’d be a happy man. We could all start again. 

Oh we could all, start again.
