Dan Dodd - "This Ordinary Life" - Providence RI

DateWednesday, November 20, 2013 at 1:00AM
Providence's Dan Dodd finds inspiration in the everyday. On his latest tune, fittingly titled "This Ordinary Life", he looks to an e-mail correspondence with a friend over seas for the lyrics. 

"Lately I've been interested in extracting songs from every day conversations. They seem to tell many stories at once, depending on who is listening," he writes.

Thankfully Dodd lets us listen in on his Nick Drake-like melodicism, matched with sublime visuals from Evan St Martin at Frame & Anchor Films. Turns out there's plenty of beauty all around us.
Dan Dodd is the stage name of Providence-based singer-songwriter Dan Chase. Dodd's is his mother's maiden name, and his given name at birth. "Using it is a sort of return to childhood for me. I think it's important we remember the innocence and honesty of being a kid. It just might be the thing that saves us as we grow up," he says.
