Don't Try To Stay

Joe Kaplow

Singer/songwriter Joe Kaplow lives in a four-acre mansion in the hills of Santa Cruz. Of course, he shares the space with a group of hippies, some rats, and some very dilapidated floors and walls... but it does have a swimming pool. For Kaplow, becoming a full-time musician - and adopting the lifestyle that often accompanies it - didn’t happen by accident. Having moved from farm life and family in New Jersey to the rich Santa Cruz music community, Kaplow has often found himself living paycheck to paycheck as he departs on three-month U.S. solo tours, records music in various bedrooms of the house where he lives, rehearses with his new band and writes constantly, dedicating himself fully and lovingly to the craft of songwriting. Kaplow’s debut album Time Spent In Between is simultaneously grounded and exploratory; the music is equal parts intimate and expansive. With raw instrumentation and earthy vocal melodies, Time Spent In Between is rich with folk songwriting brilliance.

Babe, I’m coming over
You might not like what I’m about to say, but
There’s a crowded room all in my head and 
It’s last call, everybody get out, I’m on my way

Don’t try to stay

There’s weeds in the flower bed
And the red hot sun is sinking down
The peaches you bought are overripe
The party’s over, the circus is leaving town

Don’t try to stay 

Oh, we tried at night and we tried at day
We tried it every other way
There's nothing left
Don’t try to stay

Please don’t do what I know you’re gunna do
Speak the words and bring me to my knees
Your mind is sharp and you think of everything
But darling, for once think of me and 

Don’t try to stay
