The music of Davis John Patton often resembles the feeling of discovering, dusting off, and opening up an old photo album.You’ll invariably experience a rush of memories only to be inspired to keep living and making more. He takes all of those emotions and commutes them into handcrafted, yet layered and textured folk. The Iowa-born singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer has amassed millions of streams and received acclaim from American Songwriter, Atwood Magazine, Paste Magazine, and more. This song was written from the words of a poem that Patton wrote in the early weeks of the COVID-19 pandemic. After sitting at home for days on end, he was forced to notice the simple blessings of each new day, such as the silence of the morning in his one-bedroom apartment, a fresh cup of coffee, and the sunlight piercing through the window. Most notably, of course, is the blessing of waking up in the first place, with life and breath for another day.
